The networking business is marked by ever more rapid cycles of technological innovation, at every layer: transformation of legacy, physical network elements into disaggregated cloud software and hardware components, and new physical network technologies in both wireless (e.g. 5G/6G, WiFi6/7, satellite) and wireline (e.g. fibre access and optics).
These developments create opportunities for non-telco players to address a growing breadth of customer needs, challenging telcos’ traditional dominance. But they are also a major potential source of new value for telcos, beyond simple connectivity.
Our reports and consulting services help telcos, vendors and others navigate the new, shifting landscape, and plot a course to growth through partnerships, new skills and modes of operation, and innovation.
