DESCRIPTION:14:30 - 14:45Speed is easy. Trust is harder. Does your AI have 
 both?Most telco AI deployments do not fail loudly. They fail quietly\, sli
 pping back into manual processes because teams still do not fully trust AI
  outputs\, especially in mission-critical B/OSS operations. In this Disrup
 tor Story\, Nuno challenges the industry’s default mindset - speed first
 \, governance later - and presents a different path: engineering trust fro
 m the ground up. Drawing on a real B/OSS operations use case aligned with 
 TM Forum standards\, he shows that trust is not a feature you add. It is a
  foundation you design from day one.Nuno Sá Couto\, CTO\, Conkord14:45 - 
 15:00Beyond the hype: Engineering an AI-first operating model in telecom.T
 he dominant AI narrative is one of efficiency and substitution. The operat
 ors that will win the next decade are writing a different story. The broad
 band race is won or lost where the operating model meets the customer. Vir
 gin Media O2\, Tech Mahindra and Zinier come together at DTW Ignite to sho
 wcase how AI is no longer a layer of technology you bolt onto the business
 \, but a reimagined operating model enabler. In this session\, we’ll add
 ress the question every telco leader should be answering: how do you redes
 ign the operating model so that AI compounds across the entire journey fro
 m wholesale strategy to the customer door? Moderator: Upendra Dharmadhikar
