As telcos move beyond connectivity, platform strategies are becoming a key route to growth. This report looks at how operators are approaching the shift, and the underlying capabilities and organisational traits that are shaping success across the industry.
As the bottleneck shifts from commitment to commercial execution, telcos need an API-specific playbook not a one-size-fits-all approach. Drawing on extensive demand-side research, this series of reports delivers actionable guidance on pricing logic, charging models and GTM channel strategies for emerging APIs. This report focuses on Quality on Demand (QoD).
As 5G SA deployments grow, more telcos will be in a position to offer differentiated connectivity. But the path to effective monetisation is not clear or easy. This report explores the most promising use cases and monetisation mechanisms that telcos should focus on.

The AI revolution is transforming networks, demanding greater capacity and agility in datacentre interconnectivity (DCI) to support diverse workloads. This report explores the challenges AI presents and offers recommendations for providers to adapt through flexible connectivity and NaaS models.
Network-as-a-service (NaaS) offers enterprises more than flexibility – it can unlock material, measurable financial gains. This report explores the quantitative benefits of Layer 1 NaaS across three real-world scenarios.
Appropriately beginning in a cinema room at Pathé Palace in Paris, Orange Insights 2025 set the stage for blockbuster discussions, led by the enterprise arm of an operator emblematic of an industry in the midst of profound change. In this report, we present four key themes from the event.
Analysing the relationship between NaaS implementation and customer success metrics in enterprise network services
At MWC 2025, we held the Digital Health Summit in collaboration with the GSMA. At the event, we explored the opportunities and the challenges in smart hospitals, IoT, direct-to-consumer services and AI in healthcare. This report outlines the key takeaways and insights from the summit.
AI will create large potential opportunities for telcos in connectivity and use case enablement. But telcos must manage expectations and prioritise their investments carefully.
Enterprise demand for network-as-a-service should be the catalyst for telcos to embrace the platform mindset. This report acts as a practical guide for telecom operators looking to capture opportunities with new B2B NaaS services.
Enterprises want on-demand, highly performant connectivity services – and service providers are embracing NaaS delivery and commercial models to meet these expectations. This report provides a case study of disruption in the Indian market by NaaS provider Lightstorm.
DTW24 showed a telecoms industry ready to face reality and making quiet progress. This progress may not go far or fast enough to change the future of the industry, but either way AI will play a big role.
NaaS is a major new opportunity enabled by telco cloud. But what is it? How can it be delivered and monetised? And how might it drive transformation across the whole industry?
In this update, we look at the new deployments completed by 31 March 2023 or confirmed for completion by the end of 2023 or during 2024, and provide the usual update of telco cloud deployments including new data for 2023 and 2024. Our deep dive this quarter is on SD-WAN and SASE services.
Telcos are investing in edge to grow revenues and monetise their networks. Edge orchestration will be a key tool for these telcos to manage their infrastructure easily and cost-effectively, whilst ensuring that they can meet the strict performance requirements of dynamic edge applications.
