Telco market leaders aren’t just adapting to rapid industry change—they’re driving it. Those who have seized the opportunity of edge-enabled innovation are reaping the greatest rewards; harnessing adaptive, containerised infrastructure to optimise, automate, and generate new value at the edge. Global telco leaders, Orange, used this best-in-class approach to launch their standalone end-to-end 5G network, Pikeo, which successfully powered the Linux Foundation’s open-source Sylva Project. At this event, we’ll unpack how you can use this same strategy not only to prepare your telco for the future, but to shape it.
Key discussion points
- Innovate rapidly with a global open-source tech community
- A holistic approach to cloud-native edge computing designed for modern telco excellence
- Adaptive telco infrastructure that’s ready for AI, ML, and 6G
This exclusive networking experience is open to just 12 tech and innovation leaders at telcos in Greater London. Invite a relevant senior colleague by contacting the Event Director – but places are filling fast, so book yours now!
