A new cross-industry consortium is forming to codify how trusted technology should be built, operated, and governed across borders. On February 13, 2026, fifteen companies spanning cloud, networks, semiconductors, software, and AI launched the Trusted Tech Alliance during the Munich Security Conference. The goal: define verifiable, provider-agnostic practices for a trustworthy technology stack—from connectivity and cloud infrastructure to chips, software, and AI—so customers and governments can rely on secure, resilient services regardless of where solutions are developed or deployed. Trust, sovereignty, and resilience are now gating factors for growth as AI scales and geopolitical risk reshapes supply chains.
SoftBank and OpenAI have formed SB OAI Japan, a jointly owned entity that will commercialize “Crystal intelligence,” a bundled enterprise AI offering focused on management and operations in Japan. The venture will combine OpenAI’s enterprise-grade models and tooling with localization, integration, and support led by SoftBank in-market. Crystal intelligence is positioned as a turnkey solution that pairs model access with domain-specific implementation, governance, and support. SoftBank plans to deploy the solution across its own group companies, validate outcomes in production, and recycle those learnings back into SB OAI Japan’s offerings.
Mistral AI’s new $14B valuation cements its role as a European AI powerhouse. As data sovereignty, GDPR, and the EU AI Act drive demand for open, governable AI, Mistral’s multilingual models and telco-friendly deployments position it at the center of sovereign AI adoption. From edge inferencing to RAN automation, European telcos and enterprises are rethinking AI stack choices.
AI Pulse: Telecom’s Next Frontier is a definitive guide to how AI is reshaping the telecom landscape — strategically, structurally, and commercially. Spanning over 130 pages, this MWC 2025 special edition explores AI’s growing maturity in telecom, offering a comprehensive look at the technologies and trends driving transformation.

Explore strategic AI pillars—from AI Ops and Edge AI to LLMs, AI-as-a-Service, and governance—and learn how telcos are building AI-native architectures and monetization models. Discover insights from 30+ global CxOs, unpacking shifts in leadership thinking around purpose, innovation, and competitive advantage.

The edition also examines connected industries at the intersection of Private 5G, AI, and Satellite—fueling transformation in smart manufacturing, mobility, fintech, ports, sports, and more. From fan engagement to digital finance, from smart cities to the industrial metaverse, this is the roadmap to telecom’s next era—where intelligence is the new infrastructure, and telcos become the enablers of everything connected.
AI agents are transforming industries in 2025, but scaling them efficiently without Large Language Models (LLMs) is impossible. LLMs provide critical capabilities such as reasoning, knowledge retrieval, and contextual understanding that power AI automation. This detailed article explores why LLMs are essential for AI agents, the role of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), optimization strategies, and the best free resources to master LLMs.
