I’ve just published an extended piece on Digi, its strategy and the lessons for others. The article is for subscribers, but here are some key points: - It wants to offer fixed and mobile in all of its markets, and TV in most. (”TV is an important product also in the Spanish market and we must have it.”) - Digi is not interested in the business market (”we are not actively pursuing the B2B market.”) - It is not ideological in how to build a network (”We will choose the best option available in each market”) - It is not interested in the latest technology (”AI is a domain for other companies and operators”) - The strategy is not simply based on low prices (”we do not have a philosophy of not changing the prices or keeping the prices low”) More on the potential limitations and lessons for others in the article. The transcripts from the conference calls are well worth a read and offer more insight than the typical quarterly Q&A. They are also refreshingly direct when they can’t/don’t want to answer a question. “I am sorry, I will not be very helpful” is a typical response. My favourite was: “This is a comparative question, comparing us to the others, and is way too rhetorical. I cannot be helpful here.” https://lnkd.in/ewdPb_ff

CXTech Week 23 2024 News and Analysis https://lnkd.in/e8qSRdrY Covered this week: * LINK Mobility acquires the Portuguese company EZ4U and expands its presence in Europe * Podcast 72: TADSummit Innovators, Fabrizio Salanitri, HORISEN * TADSummit Podcast directory * People, Gossip, and Frivolous Stuff Lots of discussion on the Horisen interview: 1) A carrier knows the top 10/20/30 brands sending A2P SMS over its network (many carriers have already done direct deals with Meta and Google) as discussed on Unifonic Podcast Episode 5; 2) A critical point is carriers MUST take more interest and control over a critical service for its customers. The issue is not, 'it's only 4% of revenue.' The issue is, its 20% of the value customers perceive they receive from a telco, and the experience is getting worse. 3) The risk is SMS becoming the messaging channel of last resort because of price and poor customer experience. 4) Some in the SMS ecosystem have become hooked on AIT, spam, and fraud. MEF continues to ignore our work, which demonstrates they are complicit, despite Johnny's love for them. 5) A carrier can have a 'democracy' (better control through caring about customer experience and not handing everything over to a monopoly) with 5-10 aggregators with the sanction of ‘pump sh!t at our customers/network and you're closed off for good.’ 6) The end customer is critical in all this, it’s about delivering a safe and secure communications experience. The messaging industry has lost sight of that critical base requirement. 7) Analytics and collaboration are critical to make SMS better. Horisen does not make money on the traffic, that was sold off to Link Mobility. Because they own their platform, they are best positioned to generate the best analytics. 8) Horisen is not a complete answer, they are part of a solution that can make SMS better, and takes us in a direction away from AIT, spam and fraud.

Decentralized RAN for Telecom Networks Telefonica and Nova Labs launched Helium Mobile Hotspots in Mexico. The Helium network is an open-sourced, decentralized network owned and operated by the people. Helium Mobile relies on a network of Mobile Hotspots. These hotspots are like “mini cell towers” deployed by subscribers. Anyone can participate in creating mobile coverage where it’s needed the most. When others connect to these hotspots, the hotspot owners earn MOBILE tokens. I think this concept will have its hype but then it will lose its attraction among the masses. For places where installing a mobile tower/cell is not financially viable for mobile operators, this concept will bring much needed connectivity and the people suffering from bad coverage will continue using it. But many will treat it as a business opportunity (free mobile service). For them, more subscribers mean more tokens so they will install the hotspots in already crowded areas and will eventually be competing for more subscribers to latch to their hotspots to sustain their hotspots. With more coverage and fewer subscribers, the hotspots won't be sustainable. Another aspect is the security of the subscribers. How well these hotspots will perform against cyber attacks, Man in the Middle (MitM) attacks? Usually, mobile towers are installed in a secure place. These hotspots will be installed by people in homes and surroundings, with complete physical access available. Nevertheless, its an interesting space to monitor in the upcoming future. https://lnkd.in/d8mc98VS #DecentralizedRAN #TelecomNetworks #MobileNetworks #HeliumNetwork #MobileHotspots #HeliumMobile #Telefónica #NovaLabs

Exciting times ahead for OpenRAN and the future of mobile networks! The collaboration among industry giants like Meta, Deutsche Telekom, Vodafone, and others on the Evenstar project (https://lnkd.in/gr8Qm3dq) is truly commendable. The move towards an open-source disaggregated RAN solution has the potential to revolutionize the telecommunications landscape, making connectivity more accessible and affordable for all. I couldn't agree more that initiatives like Evenstar are essential for bridging the digital divide and ensuring that everyone, especially in developing and emerging economies, has access to high-quality connectivity and services. While it might challenge traditional vendors initially, embracing open hardware platforms is crucial for driving innovation, reducing costs, and maximizing supply chain efficiency. It's heartening to see operators rallying behind this initiative, recognizing the long-term benefits it holds for the industry and society as a whole. The future of telecommunications should be inclusive and accessible to all, and projects like Evenstar pave the way for that vision to become a reality.

📉 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚'𝐬 𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐈𝐭𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐀𝐦𝐢𝐝𝐬𝐭 𝐅𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐞𝐬? In an article published by Andrea Catalano on TeleSemana.com, the current challenges facing the telecommunications sector in Latin America are laid bare. Revenues in the sector have plummeted by 𝟑𝟖 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟐 𝐭𝐨 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐, posing significant challenges for future investment in network coverage and capacity. According to a study by the consultancy @NERA, revealed at the #M360LATAM event in Mexico City, operators in the region will need to invest approximately 𝟑𝟐 𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐝𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐬 over the coming years to support the anticipated growth in data traffic. This study, supported by Movistar (Telefónica Hispam), emphasizes the urgent need to address the financial sustainability of the telecom industry. Despite the drop in revenues, 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝 📶 continues to rise, with mobile traffic expected to grow by 𝟐𝟖 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 over the next five years, and fixed network traffic by 14 percent. José Juan Haro, Director of Wholesale Business and Public Affairs at Movistar (Telefónica Hispam), stressed the importance of long-term investments and contributions from all players in the digital ecosystem to sustain networks. He called for 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜-𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 🤝and updated regulations to ensure the industry's sustainability. The fiscal burden on the sector is significant. A study by the National University of La Plata, commissioned by CABASE, revealed an average 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝟒𝟏.𝟓 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 in Argentina, which can reach up to 70 percent in some cases. Alejandro Quiroga Lopez, Director of Regulatory and Institutional Affairs at Claro Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, highlighted the 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐚𝐱 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 📊 impacting the industry’s cost structure and competitiveness. Telefónica emphasized the need to address both tax and regulatory issues to ensure the industry's sustainability. Haro pointed out that the traditional public policy approach, characterized by high taxes and spectrum costs, has led to an unsustainable level of competition in some markets. He cited 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐥'𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 from 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬 as a positive example, resulting in increased investments and improved services. The future growth of traffic, driven by #5G and 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 📡, underscores the need for modern regulatory frameworks. The concept of a fair share in investment is a priority, and without updated regulations, the industry's financial sustainability remains at risk. As Catalano's article explains, outdated policies from the last century 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲'𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 advancements and connectivity demands.

🟢 At the heart of VivaTech, one deep belief stands out: artificial intelligence is a new industrial revolution. The #AI revolution is not just about Tech, it’s actually a lot more about infrastructure and networks if we want to bring AI to all. As Telcos, we are the backbone and the last mile of the digital ecosystem and we are aware of this responsibility. With a market of 450 million consumers, a solid regulatory framework, the quality of its infrastructure and a strong talent base, Europe must embrace its full AI potential. ➡️ But Europe is still a fragmented digital and telco market, and compared to China or the US, we are missing scale. In our telco industry, scale matters. As the most active for telco consolidation in Europe, with our recent operation in Spain and the creation of MasOrange, we, at Orange, know that scale gives us the capacity to invest, much more than we could have done as an isolated player. Europe must intensify its efforts and increase investments in digital infrastructure, and consolidation of the fragmented Telco market is critical for that… Even more in light of the AI revolution. 🙏 Thank you #VivaTech to offer, every year, a glimpse into the future. VivaTech is not just a showcase of innovation, but an invitation to think over the conditions to make the future happens. Greg Williams WIRED Orange Viva Technology

The deployment of small cell technology is a key element for the development of smart cities and penetration of #5G in urban and dense areas. In the last few months, TOTEM has been working in Barcelona alongside the Barcelona City Council to set up several small cells in the areas of Port Vell and La Barceloneta. ❓Small cells are small mobile stations that allow good versatility in their locations and integration into the urban environment. These solutions enable the increase of capacity and coverage of mobile networks, especially in areas with high-user demand. All this, without any negative impact in the urban landscape, since they are small devices with the ability to camouflage themselves in cities and go unnoticed. ♻ As sustainability is a key element for TOTEM , this type of technology is a very powerful tool, as it has 20 times lower power consumption than those located on a traditional telecommunication tower. 🙌 To know more, let's deep dive with the responsable of such deployment in Barcelona Francisco J. Jiménez Higueras in this detailed video. Thank you Fran and thanks to the whole TOTEM's team in particular Rafael Cano Bernaldo de Quiros, Teresa González Fernández, Julia Donoso Galán, Jorge Villalon Panzano, David Castaño Sánchez, Elena Suárez Poch, Margarita Amengual Vilella for this brillant project and showing that TOTEM is here !     #5G #TowerCo #SmartCities

Webinar - Communications Service Provider (CSP) strategies for IoT (1st July 2024) Every year Transforma Insights publishes its CSP IoT Peer Benchmarking report, a key part of our Advisory Service research. The report analyses the capabilities and strategies of leading MNOs and MVNOs in IoT, identifying the key developments and appraising the strategies of those leading players. Based on the research we will deliver a webinar on the 1st July 2024 which will examine the key trends affecting cellular-based IoT connectivity. I will discuss the key themes that define the IoT connectivity landscape today, including: - Changing structure of the market, including the approach of different players, evolution in service offerings, relationships between the different types of CSPs, and M&A. - Network strategies including varying approaches to the various low power wide area (LPWA) cellular technologies (including NB-IoT, LTE-M, LTE Cat 1bis, and 5G RedCap), evolution in approach to 5G, and the roll out of hybrid cellular/satellite services. - Approaches to supporting multi-country connectivity, such as the approach to remote SIM provisioning, particularly SGP.32, and the changing commercial models likely to be triggered by that standard. We also compare CSPs’ abilities to address connectivity in challenging regulatory markets worldwide. - Middleware strategies, encompassing both the evolving approach to Connectivity Management Platforms (CMPs), as well as device management and other aspects of the application development ecosystem. - A renewed interest in hardware, with more CSPs focusing on a full device-to-cloud proposition, more attention on delivering gateways and modules, extension into the sensors domain, the enhancement of deployment services, and the cross-optimisation of devices with connectivity. - Consulting and contextualisation, looking at how CSPs are staving off price erosion in the core connectivity business by layering on enhanced pre-sales and post-sales support and additional horizontal services, as well as finding new ways to package and promote them. - New commercial models, including evolution in pricing approaches, service tiering, customer support, and channels strategies. - And much more The webinar will provide substantial insights into the changing dynamics of cellular-based IoT connectivity and the approaches that the leading MNOs and MVNOs are taking. It will be essential viewing for any enterprise looking to procure cellular-based IoT connectivity, any MNO/MVNO wanting to understand its position in the market, and the rest of the IoT ecosystem seeking to understand the key trends that are shaping the space.
