Telecoms operators have yet to begin marketing the new capabilities offered by their next-generation networks to multinational corporations (MNCs). In order to help CIOs evaluate the changing provider landscape, here we highlight the key capabilities to consider in telco supplier selection as the latter transform their operations from providing connectivity, to a new services and applications-based business. This analysis provides an evolution to telco 2.0 framework, from which the report intends to track telcos’ investment priorities and the introduction of new services.
