The global telco industry has a role to play in the artificial intelligence (AI)-era, and this year it will come together once again at DTW Ignite, TM Forum’s premier global industry summit, with a focus on turning strategy into reality and delivering tangible business outcomes.
Taking place at the Bella Centre in Copenhagen from 17 – 19th June, DTW Ignite registration is now open. The theme is ‘Pathways To Growth: Real challenges, real solutions, real change’, and with a host of new additions, the 2025 program will focus on three curated pathways aligned to TM Forum’s three Industry Missions:
- Composable IT and ecosystems: See how our members are transforming legacy systems into plug-and-play software, enabling zero-touch IT operations, and delivering a step-change in simplicity, velocity and customer experience.
- Autonomous networks: AN Level 4 is On! Experience real solutions to deliver end-to-end autonomous networks – harnessing AI, machine learning and advanced analytics to automate operations, boost efficiency and improve adaptability.
- AI and data innovation: Join the industry movement to create a harmonised blueprint for the implementation and acceleration of AI and data innovation, unlocking this industry-defining potential securely and at scale.
Nik Willetts, the CEO at TM Forum, said: “DTW Ignite isn’t just another conference; it’s the industry’s proving ground. We’re not gathering to just talk about the future, we’re there to build it, together. TM Forum is proud to support the industry in tackling its biggest challenges head-on, and for companies serious about navigating the complexities of AI, unlocking real growth, and building the AI-enabled telco of tomorrow, DTW Ignite is the must-attend summit of the year. This is our moment to be a part of the change, and we’re excited to bring the industry together in June.”
