How to maximise the telco API opportunity

Panel Discussion

What is the realistic commercial potential of telco APIs and how are API use cases evolving from identity and subscriber management to more profitable areas, such as network performance. The panel will consider strategies for achieving success in the API market, either through individual telcos, federations or broader coalitions, and whether or not telcos are really prepared to open their networks to offer valuable access to network capabilities. The discussion will cover the necessary network implementations and challenges to realising the full potential of telco APIs.
