Today is #EarthDay! 🌍 And more than 100 colleagues at many locations are tackling it!  In Berlin, Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Wolfsburg, Bonn and many other cities and even in Slovakia, our #GreenPioneers and colleagues from the #susTain program have organized local garbage collection campaigns!  This not only cleans up the environment, but also has a preventive effect.  Did you know that... - small puddles often accrue in empty plastic packaging, which serve as a breeding ground for mosquitoes?  🦟💧 - shards of glass act like burning glasses in summer and can ignite embankments or even forests?  🔥🌳 - a single carelessly flicked cigarette butt can poison up to 1000 liters of water?  🚬💧 In short: every contribution counts! And through such practical activities, anyone who wants to can do something for our environment directly and without spending a lot of time.  At the same time, it is important to us as Deutsche Telekom to bring sustainability forward not just on one day, but on every day! Under the motto "Every day is EarthDay", we interviewed six colleagues about how they make our core business greener in their everyday work.  For example, how... - the Internet of Things enables #circularity   - we can make network technology more energy-efficient through dialogues with suppliers   - we contribute to the green energy transition Curious? You can find more information here: https://lnkd.in/ekt6GYjP First of all, we would like to take this opportunity to thank Ana Miola, Myriam Quiskamp, German Santini, Judith Retter, Christopher Mathea, Steffen Wasmus, David Maschke, Saima Ansari, Alexander Ziemer, Simone Schlief, Ruediger Adam and all other dedicated colleagues!

Not already a Wireless Watch subscriber? Head to our website to discover more: https://lnkd.in/dgqB5WGV #APIs offer a glimmer of hope for new revenues for #operators and Deutsche Telekom has pitched itself as a leader in this arena with its #MagentaBusiness API offering. This week Wireless Watch sits down with DT’s wholesale unit, Deutsche Telekom Digital Services, to discuss its new Communication Platform as a Service (#CPaaS) and the opportunities for monetizing APIs. French #aerospace and #electronics group Thales has published a white paper celebrating accelerating growth in deployment of #embeddedSIMs (#eSIMs), focusing on the GSMA’s SGP.32 standard as a catalyst for large scale #IoT services through remote provisioning of devices with eSIMs. Wireless Watch discusses prospects for this standard and suggests why for now Thales appears to be toning down its promotion of the #iSIM variant of eSIM incorporated in the device SoC. Apple's leap into #AI is going to set the tone for consumer expectations, as the most influential #smartphone OEM globally. Is it playing it safe? Why couldn't OpenAI squeeze any cash out of one of the largest companies in the world? Could #Siri finally be consistently useful?

🔥Big Telco’s shifting tune: Struggle Street for the EU, Wall Street for the shareholders. 🤑 The ‘We're crushing it!’ discourse: Théophane Hartmann, from Euractiv, reports that Deutsche Telekom CEO Timotheus Höttges told investors the telecom operator is “thriving” on both sides of the Atlantic. 👛 The ‘We’re broke!’ rhetoric: Meanwhile, lobbyists representing these incumbent operators are trying to convince policy makers that they need a so-called ‘fair share’ (aka network fees) from (Big) Tech to enable their network investments. 📵 A disconnect in the messaging? For these incumbent telcos, struggling and thriving aren’t mutually exclusive. It all depends on who’s listening. 🐈‍⬛ Schrödinger’s telco? Policy makers, it’s time to lift the lid and see if the industry is really out of lives. Spoiler alert: it isn’t. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e96bd9HS #BetterRegulation #competitiveness #connectivity #Council #DigitalEU #DigitalNetworksAct #EU #EUCouncil #EUpolicy #FairShare #FutureTelecoms #IPInterconnection #NetNeutrality #NetworkFees #OpenInternet #telecoms #TelecomPolicy #TelecomRegulation #WhitePaper
