SESSION 6 - The Fast Track to a Sustainable DSP Future
The closing session of this year’s DSP Leaders World Forum reinforces the benefits of the move to becoming DSPs, elevating the value of network-based services and re-positioning telcos as sustainable, viable service providers that will support the evolving needs of businesses and consumers, through changing societal demands and expectations. But it also takes a pragmatic look at the challenges that must first be overcome. DSPs will need to be net zero, use low power infrastructure and support an equitable and diverse workforce. Society will demand this - and more. DSPs need to leverage the most cost-effective and innovative technologies, work with best in class partners, create high margin business models, and instil a working culture that attracts top talent. No-one said it would be easy.
