Expanding beyond the Telecom Core Business
As telecom operators explore growth beyond their core offerings, expanding into consumer adjacent sectors presents both opportunities and challenges. In this webinar, Ricard and Carlos will provide their learnings from real-world case studies of both successes and failures, analyzing the critical factors that influenced the outcomes. We will break down these factors into three essential areas: defining and aligning strategic objectives, choosing the right adjacencies, and executing effectively according to each company's objectives.
Throughout the presentation the participants will have the opportunity to engage in an open and dynamic discussion, gain insight on what separates successful diversification efforts from those that fall short and learn how to navigate this path to sustainable growth.
