In an industry dominated by a relatively small number of large and mid-sized technology developers, the odds are stacked against the smaller, more focused suppliers that often bring innovation to the telecom sector.

In this panel discussion, the first of two, we talk to three of the article's co-authors to find out why the industry needs to adapt, why now, what can be done and how two of the world's largest network operators would like to want to help develop a new ecosystem that can expand the opportunities of a broader range of technology innovators.
