Panel Discussion

This session explored whether operators can turn their distributed networks into revenue engines by combining connectivity with edge compute, AI inference, local caching, security and network APIs. Expert witnesses highlighted real opportunities in fraud prevention, deterministic connectivity, and AI-driven services — but also warned that telcos must rethink sales models and embrace deeper partnerships if they want to capture value.
