LMT Group completes strategic pivot, transforming from telco operator to technology company

LMT Group completes strategic pivot, transforming from telco operator to technology company
Latvian telco operator and mobile innovator LMT completes strategic pivot, transforming from telco operator to technology company – LMT Group. The transformation was kicked off at the launch of IoT Shortcut, the world's smallest mobile data module for sensor equipment and LMT Group's latest product. As explained by Ingmars Pukis, LMT's VP & Member of the Management Board, LMT's shift from telco into a broad-scope technology companies ecosystem has been driven by limited market opportunities, the team's historical engineering DNA, and the introduction of 5G and its capabilities, among other factors. The Group now comprises several companies and branches, including LMT IoT, LMT Defence, LMT Systems, LMT Retail & Logistics, LMT Finance, LMT Innovations, and Santa Monica Networks.

FWA adoption surges as speeds dip, Ookla finds

FWA adoption surges as speeds dip, Ookla finds
A new analysis of U.S. fixed wireless access shows subscriber momentum outpacing performance, a signal that capacity and management strategies are under pressure. Fixed wireless access from T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T added about 1.04 million net customers in Q3 2025, taking the U.S. FWA base to roughly 14.7 million. T-Mobile remains the U.S. FWA speed leader, posting a median download around 209 Mbps in Q3 2025. Median uploads dipped below 20 Mbps across providers, creating a hurdle for the FCC’s 100/20 benchmark. Urban FWA customers are more likely to meet the FCC’s 100/20 threshold than rural users due to radio geometry and site density.

AI networking bottlenecks: Europe vs US | Nokia Report

AI networking bottlenecks: Europe vs US | Nokia Report
Across roughly 2,000 decision-makers in telecom, data center, and large enterprises, a strong majority doubts that existing infrastructure will keep up with AI’s next wave. In the US, most respondents expect network buildouts to lag AI investment and call out near-term priorities such as optimizing bidirectional data flows, expanding fiber capacity, enabling real-time training feedback, and placing low-latency compute closer to users. In Europe, most enterprise leaders say current networks are not ready for broad AI adoption; many already report latency, throughput, and resiliency pain as data demands rise. The common thread is clear: without accelerated modernization, networks risk becoming the bottleneck that constrains AI outcomes.

6G XR: Holographic Calling on Live 5G SA

6G XR: Holographic Calling on Live 5G SA
A European 6G-XR consortium led by Capgemini, Ericsson, i2CAT and Vicomtech demonstrated holographic calling and edge-anchored XR services on live standalone 5G, signaling how networks will evolve to support immersive collaboration at 6G scale. The team executed end-to-end trials of real-time holographic communication and distributed XR experiences spanning edge nodes across Barcelona and Madrid. To keep spatial media stable under cell load, the partners implemented proactive congestion detection and an on-demand quality mechanism that prioritizes holographic traffic. Notably, the consortium has referenced IMS Data Channel as a vehicle to anchor real-time holographic streams within operator service frameworks.

Orange to Fully Own MasOrange in Spain

Orange to Fully Own MasOrange in Spain
Orange has signed a binding agreement to buy Lorca’s remaining 50% stake in MasOrange for 4.25 billion euros in cash, targeting completion in the first half of 2026 subject to customary approvals. The agreement transitions MasOrange from a 50:50 joint venture to a wholly owned subsidiary of Orange, consolidating governance and simplifying decision-making across mobile, fixed, and converged operations in Spain. At closing, MasOrange is expected to be fully consolidated into Orange’s accounts, including MasOrange debt that Orange plans to refinance at or after completion, providing flexibility to optimize the capital structure and cost of capital.

Google AI Plus under $5 in India vs ChatGPT Go

Google AI Plus under $5 in India vs ChatGPT Go
Google has introduced a sharply priced AI Plus subscription in India to push generative AI into the mass market and counter OpenAI’s ChatGPT Go. The AI Plus plan launches at ₹199 per month for new users for six months, then moves to ₹399 per month. The bundle raises usage limits for Gemini 3 Pro, unlocks video generation within Google’s apps, expands NotebookLM’s “deep research” capabilities, and adds 200GB of storage across Google Photos, Drive, and Gmail. Family sharing is included, signaling a household-centric growth strategy.

3GPP Issue 11: Release 18–19 Highlights and Early 6G

3GPP Issue 11: Release 18–19 Highlights and Early 6G
The latest 3GPP cycle consolidates 5G-Advanced (Release 18), sets the agenda for Release 19, and frames early 6G studies, with direct implications for operator investment, enterprise use cases, and vendor roadmaps. Release 18, the first phase of 5G-Advanced, is moving from standards completion into implementation, bringing carrier-grade enhancements in spectral efficiency, energy savings, and mobility performance. Release 19 now builds on these foundations, prioritizing further RAN efficiency, XR and video delivery at scale, richer analytics/exposure in the core (NWDAF, NEF/CAPIF), and enterprise-grade reliability across private and public networks.

Airbus shows how 3GPP steers mission-critical communications

3GPP for Mission-Critical Communications: Airbus Agnet
3GPP has become the organizing framework for how public safety, utilities, transportation and enterprise security adopt LTE/5G for mission-critical communications (MCX). For mission-critical users, 3GPP’s scope includes capabilities such as push-to-talk, data and video designed for high availability, priority, pre-emption and end-to-end security. For agencies and enterprises, the value of 3GPP is practical: it lowers integration risk, clarifies feature expectations and aligns multi-year investment roadmaps. Standards are the foundation; operational reliability is the measure of success. 3GPP is the baseline for resilient, interoperable operations.
