Lunch briefing: Navigating the AI hype maze: Monetizing autonomous networks, edge, 6G & AI Factories - Where will growth come from?

AI is everywhere but turning it into real revenue remains the challenge. As telcos move beyond experimentation, the focus is shifting from deploying AI to monetizing it across platforms, marketplaces, and ecosystems. Unlock new growth vectors. From AI-enabled operations and autonomous networks to edge-powered services and emerging AI factory models, the opportunity is clear, but so is the complexity. In this exclusive VIP session, leaders from AT&T, HCLTech, NVIDIA, and Beyond Now come together to share and discuss how CSPs can move from AI promise to measurable business impact.
