Ari Banerjee, SVP of Strategy at Netcracker Technologies, discusses the wide variety of reasons telcos have for undertaking digital transformation programs and how AI is impacting their businesses.
Netcracker on the transition from telco to ‘lifestyle provider’: Ari Banerjee
Banerjee explains that while many of Netcracker's customers are looking to consolidate IT systems, some are aiming for a telco-to-techco transformation. “They're moving beyond connectivity revenues, trying to become an IT shop. They want to engage in the FinTech industry, healthcare industry...insurance industry,” he says. Banerjee adds that the question telcos are asking themselves is: How do we evolve from being a connectivity provider to become “more of a lifestyle provider”, offering a broader range of services and solutions?
