SESSION 4 - Capitalising on an Open Vendor Ecosystem

A move towards “openness” has seen the emergence of new technologies and solutions for telecoms networks and interfaces, and whilst Open RAN grabs the headlines, there are many more projects following its example. Coupled with the continuing trend of hardware and software disaggregation, this has resulted in a potentially larger, more innovative and democratic ecosystem of suppliers and developers, which should result in exciting new opportunities for network operators. But this new open vendor ecosystem needs the support of telcos - they need to be proactive, and that means investment, partnerships, and simpler procurement terms. It also requires conformance to standards and interoperability. Only then can this expanded ecosystem help CSPS with their transition to DSPs.
