Masterclass

Many operators are exploring Autonomous Networks, but the real challenge lies in moving from strategy and maturity assessment to practical deployment.

This masterclass presents a structured roadmap toward Level-4 autonomy, showing how CSPs can translate maturity assessments into concrete transformation initiatives and deploy high-value autonomous capabilities.

Through real-world examples and industry collaboration, participants will discover how to identify the most impactful automation scenarios, design scalable solution architectures, and measure business impact.

Key topics include:

Using Autonomous Network Level (ANL) assessments to define transformation priorities
Identifying and prioritizing high-value automation scenarios
Designing solution packages that combine AI, automation, and Open APIs
Measuring success through operational and business KPIs
Lessons learned from CSP deployments and industry collaboration

The session provides a practical framework for turning autonomy ambitions into deployable solutions, helping organizations accelerate their journey toward Level-4 Autonomous Networks.

AI‑Native ops in action: from slices to self‑healing networks

Spend a focused morning on 25 June seeing AI‑native operations made real—from dynamic 5G slice lifecycle management to cross‑domain, self‑healing fault resolution and next‑gen architectures from Huawei and partners. You’ll see how leading operators and vendors are collapsing MTTR, automating complexity across power, RAN and transport, and turning TM Forum blueprints into live, production‑grade network automation patterns you can take home and reuse.
