Panel Discussion: Convergence of Connectivity and Cloud Networks

To capture the value at the cloud and network edge, partnerships between infrastructure providers and cloud companies are more important than ever. This panel will look at the opportunities for collaboration, and the constraints that network providers should be aware of including:

- How can network providers offer an alternative to cloud platforms, and how can they build an infrastructure strategy that is in cooperation with the hyperscalers?

- What value can telcos bring and how can they add value to customers? How can telcos benefit from this collaboration?

- With the cost of capital increasing, can carriers afford to take the risk by moving further up the stack from their core capability set?
