During a panel at FutureNet World 2026, London, Mavenirâs Virtyt Koshi, Senior Vice President and General Manager, EMEA, engaged with experts from Analysys Mason, Telenor, Vodafone Group, and Elisa to examine the role of autonomous networks in driving greater agility, scalability, and operational efficiency for telecom operators.
Watch the insightful âDeutsche Telekomâs Horizontal TelCo Cloud: New Industry Blueprint for TelCo Cloudsâ panel session from FutureNet World 2026, where Mavenirâs Tarek Elbasyouny, Chief Architect for Strategic Accounts (Europe), joined industry leaders from Deutsche Telekom, Amdocs, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Nokia.
Telecom networks are evolving toward cloud native and automated architectures, moving beyond siloed and vertically integrated stacks that limit agility and innovation. Deutsche Telekomâs Horizontal TelCo Cloud (HTC) brings this transformation to life. Built on a common cloud infrastructure layer, a unified cloud native ecosystem, and a centralised automation platform, HTC replaces monolithic stacks with reusable and scalable platforms. The impact is clear: software validation reduced from 6 to 9 months to 7 days, network fabric upgrades from 4 weeks to a few days, and cloud infrastructure ready within 40 days.
At MWC 2026, Fierce Network TV sat down with Mavenirâs Brandon Larson, SVP & General Manager, Cloud, AI & IMS Business Strategy, to explore how AI is moving beyond hype to deliver real, measurable impact for telecom operators.
This white paper defines an AIâbyâDesign NTN RAN, where intelligence is embedded into the architecture itself. By combining cloudâscale AI Fabric, edgeâbased distributed applications (dApps), and open disaggregated RAN architecture, Mavenir shows how operators can move from reactive operations to autonomous, SLAâdriven, and monetizable NTN services.
Deniz Celik of Turkcell, Brandon Larson of Mavenir and Amy Cameron of STL Partners discuss how the integration of conversational AI and IMS can open up new revenue streams for telecoms operators.
In this panel discussion, Gurtaj Singh Padda of Tune Talk, Tristan Huntington of TextNow and Sandeep Singh of Mavenir explain how a new breed of telecoms operators are integrating network and IT data to move fast and enable new services.
Listen to how AI is transforming operations, unlocking new revenue opportunities and laying the foundation for the future of telecom. Mavenirâs Bejoy Pankajakshan, EVP, Chief Technology & Strategy Officer; Cayetano Carbajo Martin, Director for Core Transport and Ecosystem, TelefĂłnica; Ahmed Hafez, SVP, Tech Strategy and AI in Networks, Deutsche Telekom; and David Pringle, Moderator, Mobile World Live, came together at Mobile World Congress 2026 to discuss âRealâworld value: How AI is transforming operations and customer experience today.â
Mobile World Liveâs David Pringle hosted a live panel discussion at our stand during Mobile World Congress 2026, featuring Mavenirâs Sachin Karkala, EVP & General Manager, IMS & RAN; Timothy J. Last, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Iridium; and Willie Stegmann, EVP, Composable IT & Ecosystems, TM Forum. The panel session revolved around how the convergence of AI and nonâterrestrial networks (NTN) is creating new revenue opportunities for both satellite and telecommunications operators.
At MWC26 Barcelona Pardeep Kohli, CEO, outlines Mavenirâs top priorities for the year ahead and where it sees the value of AI in telco.
