Mobile and AI services go global
About this Event
Abstract
With 8.8 Billion subscribers globally Mobile represents a huge market, but not one that is standing still, with ever more Services, Applications and Innovation. This calls on higher levels of innovation, functionality and speed, but also fresh approaches to coverage and resilience. AI is key to this, but needs to fit the world of international standards, skills and differing market needs around the world. How do we blend the opportunities and the risks that innovation brings, and allow real scale and personalised services to flow?
