NETWORKING – THE MAGIC ELIXIR FOR RESTORING HEALTH TO CARRIER
BUSINESS MODELS
This presentation focuses on the current financial challenges facing
carriers around the world. It details the specific issues to be resolved
and a plan to return the carriers to financial health. As the carriers'
financial health improves, only then can the telecom equipment vendors
find sustained improvement in their businesses. Starting with services,
this presentation will address the most promising new carrier services
for the next several years, and, most importantly, how to make money
from them. The critical technology enablers that will help to reduce
both capital and operating expenses will also be described. New optical
technologies will enable carriers to dramatically change the way they
do business and, thus, earn appropriate returns on their investments.
The presentation will conclude with a brief overview of the regulatory
and other changes necessary to usher in a new era of prosperity in the
optical networking industry.
