Transforming telcos through AI
Transforming telcos through AI
AI is reshaping the commercial landscape for telecom companies. It offers innovative solutions that empower telcos to operate with heightened efficiency and precision. In this Viewpoint, we explore how leveraging AI optimizes individual transactions, can boost customer engagement by over 15%, and reduce operational costs by up to 30%. As telcos embrace AI-driven tools, the potential to accelerate growth and gain a competitive advantage becomes increasingly evident.
Reshaping telecom investment in a next-generation world
Reshaping telecom investment in a next-generation world
Telco operators are facing declining profitability from a combination of stagnant or negative revenue growth resulting from competition and increasing CAPEX/OPEX caused by increasing user traffic. While operators have always run efficiency programs, traditional methods are no longer sufficient to meet current financial constraints and future market evolution. This Viewpoint explains how successfully managing costs requires a new, more granular, holistic approach.
Migrating to the next network
Migrating to the next network
The telecom industry is evolving rapidly, simultaneously witnessing the rise of new, advanced network transitions while current technology becomes obsolete. This Viewpoint explores how mobile telecom operators can effectively implement customer migration acceleration programs to optimize operations, migrate customers to advanced networks, and unlock new opportunities in a future-ready telecom landscape.
DESIGNING INSURANCE SALES CHANNELS FOR MAXIMUM IMPACT
DESIGNING INSURANCE SALES CHANNELS FOR MAXIMUM IMPACT
Fierce competition for clients and the adoption of new technologies are pushing insurance companies to make bold efforts to improve their sales force and emphasize their most profitable channels. Developing a data-driven strategy to properly dimension sales channels will allow companies to maximize their resources and deploy efficiency initiatives. In this Viewpoint, we define an organized approach to sales dimensioning that can be used by insurance companies and other sectors.
Enabling a sustainable telco ecosystem
Enabling a sustainable telco ecosystem
Sustainability has become increasingly important to telco business strategy and operations. Although individual 5G equipment is more energy-efficient than its predecessors, the need for more extensive, denser networks will increase overall direct energy consumption. Amid rising energy prices, how can telcos achieve their sustainability goals, while enabling broader decarbonization? In this Viewpoint, we provide frameworks and strategies telcos can use to improve sustainability.
Rising inflation! How are telcos reacting?
Rising inflation! How are telcos reacting?
With inflation rates rising, telcos are facing increasing costs and slowing market growth rates, leading to shrinking margins. To overcome this challenging cycle, operators are adopting distinctive strategies as a way to effectively respond to inflation and become more resilient, with mixed results. In this Viewpoint, we evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each approach — and present an assessment of what strategies hold the most promise.
