Over recent years, CSPs’ Wholesale and MVNE businesses have faced challenges in adapting to increasing commoditization. Despite regulatory changes and the widespread adoption of 4G, the MVNE market has struggled to achieve a significant breakthrough. Consequently, the MVNO business model has largely been utilized to support sub-brands and no-frills brands. But could that be on the verge of a transformation?
Just looking at the new-tech combination of 5G and IoT – this brings together higher connectivity needs with critical applications reliant on connectivity to many industries and use cases that are not using them today.
For the CSP, there is a tsunami of technology change rapidly approaching – ranging from new technology almost upon us – IoT, Cloud, NFV/SDN – followed closely by e-SIM, 5G and AI. With the biggest challenges for CSPs being how to differentiate and add value in a saturated marketplace – surely there is a way to leverage the emerging technology to create new growth opportunity.
The well-worn retort that CSPs should combine new-tech use cases and services with connectivity to create wider, more attractive offerings to their customers has been said often enough.
The use cases for 5G and IoT will be so fundamentally different to classic connectivity that it will open up a radically new business model opportunity for CSPs.
It’s clear that 5G is more than just another network technology – rather it is an enabler for a set of IoT use cases which require specialized connectivity solutions leveraging high data rates, rapid scalability and very low latency.
