Blogs
Communications service providers (CSPs) have ample opportunities to monetize their 5G networks across various industries like manufacturing, energy, healthcare, logistics, smart cities, and smart homes. However, the transition to delivering ultra-fast wireless services introduces organizational challenges and frustrations. CSPs must adapt their operational models and processes to effectively tap into the potential of 5G, overcoming long-held beliefs and myths that hinder necessary changes for growth in the 5G ecosystem.
Communications service providers (CSPs) aim to transform into digital service providers (DSP) to succeed in the digital era. To capitalize on the $700 billion global enterprise opportunity facilitated by 5G by 2030, CSPs must simplify their architectures and collaborate with ecosystem partners to develop vertical solutions. This approach will allow them to serve both business (B2B2X) and consumer (B2C) markets, positioning themselves as digital ecosystem providers (DEP) and enhancing their position in the evolving market.
