Digitalise. Evolve. Grow.
Telecoms underpin the digital world and all the disruption that has reshaped how many of us work, socialise, learn, shop, travel and play, among other things. Yet telcos’ own business and operational models have altered little in 30 years, and growth of 1-2% is predicted for most this year. The need to digitalise, end to end, has never been more urgent. Join us to explore how network operators can digitalise to evolve and grow.
