Total Telecom – European telcos could see €2bn profit hike from OTT collaboration
Telcos are increasingly working with OTT players but partnerships tend to be manually built and managed, explained Landry Ndikumasabo a manager at Swedish consultancy firm Northstream. By deploying collaboration platforms operators can open up APIs and provide access to back office functions to OTT partners. This means a deeper level of collaboration in a more automated way, which costs less, allows for a greater number of partnerships, and facilitates more innovative service offerings
