Telecom operators are transforming into techcos, operating their network as a service and applying various operating models. With cloud native networks, edge and AI, they are now in the monetization strategy implementation phase. Telcos, and the entire ecosystem must collaborate to monetize opportunities arising from virtualized networks while ensuring infrastructures are evolving to prepare for 6G. As the telco world is morphing into an IT centric one, we explore ways to foster API-driven partnerships and Artificial Intelligence to automate the network and unlock innovation and monetization avenues.
Join our experts as they navigate the intricacies of the next step into their cloud-native journey, and how they are working together to unify their infrastructure to facilitate monetization of their networks.
