In 2025, direct-to-device (D2D) satellite connectivity and non-terrestrial networks (NTN) advanced from experimental trials to critical infrastructure. With commercial D2D services going live, mobile operators and satellite providers redefined network coverage, service resilience, and long-term positioning. North America led the competitive rollout, Europe balanced innovation with sovereignty, and new players, including cable operators – joined the ecosystem.
The telecom industry is evolving fast, driven by the rise of AI and real-time data demands. Telcos are moving from legacy connectivity models toward becoming AI-powered intelligence infrastructure providers. This transformation spans infrastructure modernization, distributed AI, operational automation, and monetization shifts, from selling bandwidth to delivering tailored digital experiences.
Latvian telco operator and mobile innovator LMT completes strategic pivot, transforming from telco operator to technology company โ€“ 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.
The Port of Tyne has deployed a private 5G network across its 620-acre site with support from BT and Ericsson. Leveraging edge computing, AI, and drones, the port has improved safety, operational agility, and data-driven decision-making, positioning itself as one of the UKโ€™s most advanced smart ports.
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 FCCโ€™s 100/20 benchmark. Urban FWA customers are more likely to meet the FCCโ€™s 100/20 threshold than rural users due to radio geometry and site density.
Across roughly 2,000 decision-makers in telecom, data center, and large enterprises, a strong majority doubts that existing infrastructure will keep up with AIโ€™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.
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.
AI in telecom is often treated as a cost-saving tool. The leaders treat it as a business engine. Discover how AI at the heart of OSS reshapes operations, monetization, and customer engagement in one closed loop. Cutting costs with AI is easy. Compounding value with AI is hard. Learn how forward-looking operators embed AI into OSS to unlock sustained growth, resilience, and differentiation.
LG Electronics has won a CES 2026 Best of Innovation Award for its AI-powered in-vehicle experience, redefining how drivers and passengers interact with mobility through Affectionate Intelligence. The solution combines immersive displays, in-cabin sensing, and on-device AI to transform the vehicle cabin into a more intuitive, human-centered space.
UK regulator Ofcom has opened formal investigations into BT (including EE) and Three after nationwide voice service outages this summer impaired access to other networks and to emergency services. BT notified Ofcom of a software-related failure that disrupted interconnect voice services to and from the EE mobile network on 24โ€“25 July 2025. During the incident, many BT and EE customers could not complete mobile calls to other networks or reach emergency services. Three separately reported a UK-wide disruption to voice services on 25 June 2025, which also affected some customersโ€™ ability to contact emergency services.
