But as telecoms converges with other sectors, the disruption it causes runs both ways. Companies need to stay alert as innovations from other industries threaten to undermine established telcos. And as change accelerates, regulators need to be alive to new demands, breakthrough businesses and emerging technologies from around the world. Change is happening lightning fast. Businesses must adapt just as quickly and operate with agility to stay one step ahead of the pack.
As digitalization deepens its reach into every part of society, new opportunities for telecommunications technology know no bounds. Telecoms players have gone beyond simply being service providers to other industries, they’re now transforming them – with the technology emerging here becoming an integral part of how everything is monitored, managed and ultimately, optimized.
