Chen said, "Ron will focus on BlackBerry's long-term product roadmap, including hardware, software and design, as well as the company's joint development efforts. A good deal of Ron's time will be spent with customers, carriers and partners. On our path to return BlackBerry to profitability, nothing is more important than remaining deeply connected to our customers, and designing and delivering secure products that exceed their expectations."
