Barcelona ( CNN ) -- BlackBerry CEO John Chen says the company will focus on attracting and keeping business customers as he implements his strategy to reverse its decline . Speaking in Barcelona , where he unveiled the company 's new Z3 and Q20 smartphones on Tuesday , Chen said : `` My turnaround strategy relies on the enterprise customer for the next one to two years . `` In the meantime I actually want to make sure that we still have a very keen eye on the consumer space . `` By that time I hope if all my plans work -- a big if -- we will be a much more financially solid company , at which point in time you will see us being more aggressive into the other space . '' The Z3 and Q20 will be the first products to emerge from BlackBerry 's partnership with electronics maker Foxconn . Under the five-year agreement , Foxconn will develop and manufacture certain BlackBerry handsets , while the company focuses on software and its BlackBerry Messsaging service , BBM . Although they unveiled the Q20 smartphone , which combines a physical keyboard with a 3.5-inch touchscreen , the company did n't show a prototype in Barcelona . Speaking about the production of the Z3 , Chen said : `` It 's the first collaboration between us and Foxconn . I do n't think anybody has been able to put a phone together at this level this quickly and it will get into the hands of our consumers in exactly four months . `` The deal was signed between us and Foxconn on December 12 , 2013 , and we will see it in April . '' BBM has been a talking point at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona , following Facebook 's blockbuster acquisition of messaging service WhatsApp last week for $ 19 billion . BBM boasts around 85 million monthly active users , compared with more than 450 million for WhatsApp . Asked if he would consider selling off BBM , Chen said : `` I run a public company . Anything that 's good for our shareholder I have to entertain . Having said that , BBM is a huge part of our strategy going forwards . `` There are a lot more features and functionality that will be built up on it . It 's an integral part of what value do we add to the enterprise [ customer ] and why should they continue with us . '' BlackBerry unveiled a new version of its messaging service Tuesday called BBM Protected , with a focus on increased security for business clients . He said raising confidence inside and outside the company is the biggest challenge he faces in the next 12 months . `` I need to make sure the employee is confident . I 'm making a lot of changes which are a little more of a departure from the norms of the past . `` I 've been in the business long enough to know this is really about 'show me . ' At the end of the day they want to see that we can make progress as a company both in product and financially . Until I do that , all these things are interesting , relevant , capture a lot of attention , but the real potential can not be realized until we make money and then the company starts believing in itself .
