After ten years at the helm of Cheng Shouzong, BlackBerry transformed from a hardware and equipment company to a company focused on enterprise software. The official website introduced that he led BlackBerry to turn losses into profits, stabilized the company's financial situation, and ensured its viability

Last year, the company closed its smartphone business and has since been trying to sell patents related to mobile devices. Earlier this month, the company announced that it would split its IoT and cybersecurity departments and plan to make an initial public offering of its IoT business subsidiary in the next fiscal year.
