Change agents know that stakeholders need a picture of the future – or “vision” – to point the way for a transformation. Yet visions can do more to unite and inspire action. How can telcos improve them?

We evaluate the role of disaggregation and cloud native infrastructure and key breakthrough opportunities for network operators.
There is now a valuable but specialised opportunity in building out fibre to support small 5G cells in high value areas. Which players should address it and how?

The Telco Cloud Operator Profiles present the network virtualisation strategies of selected operators. Their aim is to provide a picture in ‘plain English’ of these companies’ progress in their virtualisation journeys.
In recent years, the web 3.0 movement, which seeks to fundamentally change the economics of the Internet, has gained significant momentum. For many telcos, the disruption caused by a shift to web 3.0 could open up opportunities to rebuild relevance and revenues in the consumer market.
