This webinar assess the key takeaways from MWC 2026 through an operator lens, cutting through claims to identify what is truly scaling.
We examine progress in AIOps, intent-driven operations, and the path to truly autonomous networks, as well as what ‘intelligent infrastructure’ looks like in practice, including the data foundations and governance needed to make it work. We also explore whether network APIs and NaaS are moving from strategy to revenue, how 5G Advanced is being positioned for new performance and commercial models, and what role Open RAN and cloud-native architectures play in enabling AI at scale, including AI-RAN. Finally, we will review progress on non-terrestrial networks (NTN), security and resilience, and the impact on energy efficiency as automation becomes pervasive.
Join STL Partners and industry experts as we unpack what was hot at MWC 2026: what is real, what is next, and what still is not proven.
