5g monetization

The 5g monetization tag brings together coverage of how telecom operators may turn next-generation network capabilities into practical, managed services. Current coverage focuses on Tech Mahindra and Microsoft’s AI-driven 5G Network Digital Twin, which combines telecom expertise with Microsoft cloud, data, and AI platforms. The approach creates a living model of a network, using real-time information to help predict faults, optimize performance, and test changes before they affect production infrastructure. It also reflects a broader shift toward software-defined, cloud-native operating models for communications service providers and the technologies that could support new ways to run and develop 5G networks.
