Network X Americas Keynote Panel, Telecom at an Inflection Point: Growth, Consolidation and Capital Strategies, is about to take place. Key questions on the table: 🔹 Are we entering a new era of consolidation or selective portfolio reshaping? 🔹 Where is capital flowing next — fibre, AI, edge? 🔹 How are TowerCos, neutral hosts and hyperscaler partnerships reshaping ownership models and valuation metrics? 🔹 What role will spectrum policy, open access and national security play in future deal-making? 🔹 Where will the next wave of telecom revenue come from? If you’re thinking about growth, investment or strategic direction in telecom, this is one to be in the room for.
