Building a future-proofed telco infrastructure

Panel Discussion

What are the key considerations and strategies for building a future-proofed telecom infrastructure? Telcos need to align infra expansion with user demand, to build out high capacity, resilient, scalable and future-ready network infrastructure. Technology needs to be abstract and orchestrated end to end. But will new telco deployments be led by general purpose hardware and software or by specialised solutions? And is there clear evidence to show that enterprises actually want this advanced infrastructure and that the high investment will be justified by new revenue opportunities?
