June 2026 showed agentic AI scaling from pilot to platform: industry-wide standards momentum, AI-RAN field trials from Nokia, Amdocs and KDDI, and fresh capital across data centers on three continents. This full roundup covers every deployment, partnership, funding round and governance move from the month, with tools to prioritise AI use cases and plan the network around them.
2025 has seen major telecom and tech M&A activity, including billion-dollar deals in fiber, AI, cloud, and cybersecurity. This monthly tracker details key acquisitions, like AT&T buying Lumen’s fiber assets and Google’s $32B move for Wiz, highlighting how consolidation is shaping the competitive landscape.
Switzerland’s SBB has deployed an Ericsson IMS/VoLTE platform that interworks with legacy GSM-R, delivering Europe’s first live bridge between public 4G voice and mission-critical railway communications. Ericsson and SBB completed a nationwide IMS/VoLTE integration that extends reliable voice communications across Switzerland’s 3,100 km rail network and removes dependency on public 3G roaming for coverage gaps outside GSM-R footprints. The IMS core integrates multi-supplier elements and preserves EIRENE features such as functional numbering, group calls, emergency stop calls, and onboard announcements, ensuring safety-critical behavior is maintained. It also demonstrates that mission-critical requirements can be met over modern IP telephony when engineered with the right interworking, governance, and testing.
Nokia and Swisscom Broadcast are partnering to establish Switzerland's largest Drones-as-a-Service (DaaS) network, featuring 300 Drone-in-a-Box units. This deployment aims to improve public safety and industrial operations by offering quick, autonomous drone responses for emergencies and inspections. Utilizing advanced 3GPP technologies and edge computing, this network is designed to overcome Switzerland's unique operational challenges, ensuring reliable and efficient beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations. This initiative builds on Nokia's successful drone deployment in Belgium and is set to revolutionize safety and efficiency across various sectors in Switzerland.
