Last week I gave my FOURTH keynote talk at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2024 when I opened the second annual MVNO Summit to a standing-room-only crowd of industry leaders. Most were from MNOs, MVNOs, and digital brands that want to be at the forefront of an AI-powered revolution in telco business support systems (BSS).  In my talk, I introduced a new AI-first, fully customized BSS solution that blends speed, scalability, and affordability to deliver a next-gen experience that streamlines operations and lowers costs. In the middle of it, I chatted with an avatar and created a BSS right on stage! We captured the talk on video, and I’ve turned it into this podcast. Listen now to learn:  <ul> <li>Why the emergence of two major innovations—AI and the public cloud—is disrupting incumbent vendors, leveling the playing field, and making this the perfect time for BSS innovation [03:13];</li> <li>How the killer demo in my presentation demonstrates the power of an AI-first BSS solution [08:50]; and</li> <li>Why Totogi’s BSS Magic is the future of telco BSS [16:57].</li> </ul> Listen now by clicking play above or subscribe through your favorite podcast platform—see the links in the right column above.
