(Press Release): The Telco 2.0 Transformation Index - provides a comprehensive business model transformation benchmark of leading global communication service providers - the first benchmark of future telecoms business models from The Telco 2.0 Initiative.

The index shows that changes are underway at AT&T, Ooredoo, SingTel, Telefonica and Verizon but no player is yet doing enough to ensure a successful transition to a sustainable new ‘Telco 2.0’ business model.

A new report from the Telco 2.0 Initiative shows that telcos could lose up to $172bn from core revenues in five years if they don’t make dramatic improvements to their voice and messaging strategies.
The research shows that Telcos can fight to reduce this loss by $80bn through intelligent optimisation of prices and bundles, service enablement, exploiting new standards such as WebRTC and VoLTE, creative approaches to own brand OTT services, and a greater focus on enterprise communications.
