Press release
« Une implication totale de XXX »
This is a sub-heading in a press release by XXX, a specialised networking provider. The section goes on to explain how XXX worked over a long period in close collaboration with YYY, a major engineering provider to develop a highly innovative (of course) mobile networking solution.
Any inspirations for a suitably PR-esque turn of phrase?

Note from asker:
| I like the change of tone given by Tony's amendment, using "from" -- adds a good upbeat PR slant to it. |

: Good ones! I quite like the idea of 'total commitment from XXX', what do you reckon? And I love 'score a winner' // Yes, quite agree; once it's réussi, it is no longer a gamble.

I'm Ok with the "from" bit - I tend to judge these things on re-read gut feeling and then as part of a whole (I would avoid gamble" - sounds too risky

Comment: "Thanks CMJ: it can be a fine line between "involvement" and "commitment" for «implication», but I went with this for its more active tone in this context, with the added dash of PR-speak from Tony's suggestion."

Second heading: « XXX assure la transmission sans fil sécurisée de .... »
The tone is lightly technical, definitely not popular press; narrative but lots of rather dry feature lists, at a functional rather than detailed technical level.
