Panel discussion

In this interactive panel discussion, we reveal the transformative potential of software-as-a-service (SaaS) in the dynamic landscape of 5G technology with the help of industry experts from Telia, Citymesh and Nokia.

The telecom industry is adding to its traditional connectivity heritage with the innovative use of telecom software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms. Ever-increasing data traffic volumes and additional complexity are driving the adoption of scalable, automated networks and the transition from hardware-centric networks to software-defined, agile systems, with SaaS delivering agility and functionality. Adopting SaaS enhances efficiency, innovation and competitiveness for telcos and enables service providers to address vital security and service control challenges.

Discover how accelerated SaaS adoption in 5G core networks and APIs will unlock opportunities for data analytics, AI, and collaborative innovation ecosystem.
