SUMMARY:Navigating Transformation: from Telecoms to Tech Comms?
DESCRIPTION:  Telecom operators are undergoing major transformation to meet the demands of a digital world. By investing in technologies like 5G, AI, and network virtualization, they are evolving into agile “Tech Comms” companies. However, they face challenges such as shrinking margins, shifting customer expectations, and heavy investment needs for fiber and mobile upgrades. Competition from digital giants and startups further pressures their role in the value chain. Still, rising demand for connectivity from IoT, cloud, and data-rich apps offers growth opportunities. The discussion will explore how Telcos can tackle these challenges, leverage partnerships, navigate regulation, and enable new digital services.
