PRESS RELEASE
Lots of the telecoms business’s greatest names took to the stage at TM Discussion board’s Autonomous Networks (AN) Summit in Copenhagen to debate the taking autonomous networks to Stage 4
Business leaders from Telefonica, Vodafone, China Cell, Zain, MTN, AIS, EANTC, and Huawei gathered on the Summit and delivered keynote speeches focussing on AN. They spoke to an viewers representing over 150 international operators, every in search of to be taught the newest progress and achievements associated to Autonomous Networks.
From conceptual consensus to deployment at scale, AN has made nice progress after greater than 4 years of improvement. Over 14 operators internationally have launched their AN technique of reaching Stage 4 by 2025, with 70% anticipating to achieve Stage 3 and past by 2025.
To drive the event and adoption of AN additional, TM Discussion board launched the AN Whitepaper 5.0 as a information for all operators to implement AN, with all of the audio system becoming a member of the Whitepaper launch ceremony on the Summit.
Aaron Boasman-Patel, the chair of the TM Discussion board AN Program, mentioned in his presentation: “We lately launched the AN Manifesto to speed up the adoption of autonomous networks and I’m delighted to see 31 giant CSP and vendor members turn into founding signatories in such a short while – this signifies the vital function autonomous networks goes to play in CSPs operations. Moreover, we launched the brand new the AN Whitepaper R5.0, which noticed contributions by 64 companions. On this launch, we renewed the 4 Parts Methodology because the AN Framework (ANF), which is able to act because the AN Journey Information for operators whereas adopting.”

Boonchoung Tansuthepverawongse, Head of Community knowledge and OSS Platform from AIS, mentioned in his presentation: “After one other yr of nice efforts, AIS is rarely wavering within the strategic objective of changing into a Cognitive Tech-Co to unleash digital buyer expertise excellence. Alongside this journey, AN have at all times performed a big function in forming the idea for enhancing community reliability, community high quality, operation effectivity and most significantly, boosting AIS enterprise progress.”

Mohamed Salah, Head of community operation and transformation at MTN Group, mentioned: “MTN repeatedly making innovation by value-base automation program below MTN’s PACE technical technique. The situations (corresponding to NPS enchancment) are chosen with “services-networks-value streams” three-dimensional mannequin. So, we are able to enhance our AN stage and seize the worth autonomous networks throughout this evolution journey.”

Sam Wang, Common Supervisor of Huawei ADN Options mentioned: “Practices and applied sciences are the 2 core drivers for Autonomous Networks. Huawei will proceed to spend money on the scenario-based options, root applied sciences corresponding to basis fashions, and enablement providers to drive the business ahead. And the business must be extra open and cooperative to construct a telecom basis mannequin to assist richer enterprise utility situations.”

An increasing number of operators are exploring AN,and actively sharing their implementation expertise, serving to to unfold these necessary classes throughout the business. Undoubtedly, this sort of sharing, dialogue and collaboration will encourage the true innovation and alter for paving the best way to extremely Autonomous Networks.
