Implementing our e-business strategy is an enormous job. In addition, the fast-paced nature of information technology and the market must also be considered. A completely new process can be "water under the bridge" tomorrow. To come to grips with all the work involved and to coordinate all activities, we have created our own e-business sector in-house. The relevant data for e-business from all business units is collected and processed here.

The "E-Champion" award that INA received in June of 2001 for outstanding achievements in the implementation of Internet-based technologies shows that we're on the right track.
