GSMA-DLT Shared Vision for the Telecom Industry

A presentation of the Telecom Special Interest Group on April 8, 2021 with the GSMA.  The GSMA-DLT shared industry vision evolves around the key tenet that Distributed Ledger Technology or DLT cannot be assumed as siloed and certainly involves other business technology enablers. 80% of the discussions must be business focus and 20% technology focused. The ecosystem is multi-stakeholder in nature including Opcos, Wholesale Carriers, Banks, Mobile Players/Enterprise and Policy Makers. This presentation emphasizes DLT opportunities for the Telecom Industry and provides a clear roadmap for moving from POCs to commercialization with demonstrable proof points to maximize impacts for some key use cases.
