As CSPs transform their business for the 21st century, they will be challenged to pivot quickly and reorient for growth. KPIs have been a long-standing measurement of success. However, as Nokia’s Senior Partner, Bell Labs Consulting, Stephen Rose explains, adjusting your approach to success can make all the difference.
To get 5G quality service in the home, today’s telecom incumbents are recognizing the need to partner with open access fibre providers and neutral hosts. Ben Bawtree-Jobson of FTTP fibre infrastructure provider SiFi Networks tells us with AR and VR bringing the Metaverse to the masses, demand is about to skyrocket. Listen to the full podcast.

Addressing climate change is an opportunity, not a burden. Jean Benoît Besset of Orange France outlines four key pillars to boost operational efficiency while reducing carbon footprints.
Operators are sitting on a treasure trove of data about their customers but cultural, technical, and regulatory silos within the industry can prevent them from leveraging it to the benefit of the enterprise or consumer — and ultimately the CSP itself. DataStax’s SVP of Telecom Strategy Reed Peterson believes telcos should be among our most trusted brands and can be trusted to use that data wisely and legally.
CSPs must embrace network automation under 5G. du Telecom’s Basel Elabed explains that the first hurdle is human and they should look at quick wins.
The evolution to SaaS will require CSP’s to change the way they do business. Nokia’s Mark Bunn says it’s about demonstrating value that will keep your customers coming back.
The telecom industry can’t pivot to 5G without artificial intelligence. TMForum’s Aaron Boasman-Patel explains how it’s an opportunity – and a challenge. A successful AI deployment is about the metrics you measure it by and the outcomes, versus what you are doing today.
As CSPs look for new business opportunities and models, author Robbie Kellman Baxter says the focus needs to be on the member, not the model.
How does a CSP with a huge investment in their networks get the most out of infrastructure? By taking a page from the playbook of the Masters of Monetization. 30-year veteran Disney executive Duncan Wardle shares his insight into how The House of Mouse achieves such a high ROI and what a mouse can teach the telecom industry about being a lion in its space.

Catherine Henry, SVP of Growth at MediaMonks, says that 2 billion people will be using AR within the next year. Will 5G be the “killer app”? Listen to the podcast from Nokia.
The Smart City of the future is being built today. But as foundational as 5G will be, it’s true power is unleashed when it’s combined with the Internet of Things, Machine Learning, Cloud Computing – and good User Interface design. Telecom analyst Chris Lewis says we have a unique opportunity to build the next generation city as accessible for all – not just the abled or wealthy.
A change is in the air for bands performing at concerts. Sennheiser is experimenting with 5G for its ultra-low latency at live audio productions. Dr. Jan Dürre tells our Michael Hainsworth why the future may be crystal clear for performing musicians, giving concertgoers a reason to get up out of their seats and cheer.
World Telecommunication and Information Society Day marks the founding of the International Telecommunications Union in 1865. But since 1969, it has also celebrated the advances the industry has brought to society. Our Michael Hainsworth looks back at the last 50 years, and also to the future, with the ITU’s Doreen Bogdan-Martin and learns that the biggest challenge for the next 50 years is closing the digital divide COVID-19 clearly exposed.
Smart telecom providers are embracing the concept of “cloud-native” when deploying 5G. But Nokia’s Jitin Bhandari tells our Michael Hainsworth there’s more to next generation wireless than moving to the cloud. Learn about what’s needed beyond cloud-native, automation’s four pillars and the capability to use any cloud.
Like the famous psychologist’s theory, telecom companies strive for self actualization. But how can CSPs elevate themselves to capitalize on Industry 4.0 in the 5G era? TL Viswanathan, Nokia’s head of product management, believes companies need to do some soul searching if they’re going to succeed.
The growth potential for the cloud under 5G relies on Business to Business to Everything. If we're to find the next big thing, telecom operators need to partner up and be flexible. AWS’s Amir Rao knows that the next killer app requires CSPs to recognize their role in this new ecosystem.
Edge cloud computing and artificial intelligence are driving a seismic change to enterprise in the 5G era. But for Industry 4.0 to accelerate, CSPs need to understand the power and flexibility of putting the cloud closer to the user.
Google’s Head of Global 5G Solutions, Majed Al Amine says that knowing how to deploy 5G will save both time and money.
The next “killer app” will run on a 5G network. Simon Buckingham of development house Nonvoice Agency tells Michael Hainsworth that developers need support — and possibly deep pockets — if they’re going to leverage the high speed, low latency, and power of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

5G will bring download speeds up to 100x faster than 4G. That speed boost will force content creators to evolve. Stewart @Brittlestar Reynolds, aka The Internet’s Favourite Dad (unproven) says the biggest impact will be in how quickly content must be created.
5G requires additional CAPEX investments, and it’s arriving at a time when telecom companies are feeling the pinch. But to Salesforce’s Steve Mannel, the real ROI for 5G won’t come from consumers -- it will come from building an enterprise ecosystem.
The FANGS are out and telecom companies don’t want to get bitten. But as giants like Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, and Google build their next generation services on 5G, how does a telecom company go from “dumb pipe” to “smart collaborator?” Stephen Rose of Bell Labs says the industry has to sharpen its teeth.

Every time someone picks up a 5G smartphone, a superhero springs into action.
For Nokia’s Jitin Bhandari, it’s not the ‘faster than a speeding bullet’ radio access network. And it’s not the transport’s ability to leap tall silos in a single bound. It’s the mild mannered 5G core. But the man charged with helping communications service providers build-out the next generation network is a super hero himself, if not to his clients, at least to his kid.
