OSLO, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Norwegian telecoms operator Telenor (TEL.OL) hopes to decide on a strategic solution for its Pakistan business before year-end, the company's CEO told Reuters on Wednesday. "We are in contact with many parties now, which is why I say I'm rather optimistic that we will by the end of the year have a final solution," CEO Sigve Brekke said. The three options are a merger similar to what Telenor has already done for other parts of its Asia businesses, a sale, or to continue but in a different operational model, he added.

Phadke most recently headed Google Cloud's (GOOGL.O) telecom business and has previously worked for British Telecom, Alcatel-Lucent and Accenture's network services unit. He said he wanted Telenor "to use AI in all of our operations to make operations more efficient, develop new products, increase energy efficiency." Phadke said Telenor would use AI will to make business operations more efficient, for example to predict traffic demand and allocate more bandwidth to areas with more users, and to improve interactions with customers. "We do not believe that AI will directly result in job reductions," Phadke said, adding he envisaged using AI to augment and enhance, not substitute, humans in processes.

☆ Without us 'there is no Google': EU telcos ramp up pressure on Big Tech to pay for the internet
  + stars: | 2023-03-10 | by ( Ryan Browne Arjun Kharpal | Ryan Browne | Arjun Kharpal | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +8 min
Google , Netflix , Meta , Apple , Amazon and Microsoft generate nearly half of all internet traffic today. Big Tech firms say this would amount to an "internet tax" that could undermine net neutrality. They bemoaned spending billions on laying cables and installing antennas to cope with rising internet demand without corresponding investments from Big Tech. One suggestion is to require individual bargaining deals with the Big Tech firms, similar to Australian licensing models between news publishers and internet platforms. "The imbalance is not down to Big Tech, it's not down to streamers, and it's not down to telcos.
☆ Next-gen mobile internet — 6G — will launch in 2030, telecom bosses say, even as 5G adoption remains low
  + stars: | 2023-03-08 | by ( Arjun Kharpal | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
"We have not completed the deployment of 5G yet," Ha Min Yong, chief development officer of SK Telecom , told CNBC last week. However, after hundreds of billions of dollars of investment into 5G networks, carriers have struggled to see the return. I don't see any use cases today that we can't do with 5G or its immediate evolutions," Watson told CNBC last week. Many of the current 5G networks are built on top of equipment and technology from 4G. There will also be more software that powers 5G networks helping with efficiency such as the management of data traffic.

☆ Telenor Q3 gets surprise boost from one-off gain in Pakistan
  + stars: | 2022-10-26 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
Dented by soaring inflation and intense competition, the company's shares have lost 35% year-to-date, closing at a 10-year low on Tuesday. "However, the negative effects are, this quarter, countered by a reversal of SIM tax provision in Pakistan." The one-off gain could help Telenor meet its annual goal of unchanged profit versus last year, it said. The group maintained its investment forecast for the year, predicting capital expenditure would amount to 16-17% of sales, and reiterated that service revenue would see "low single-digit growth". "We see positive trends for mobile service revenue in the Nordic region, with a growth of 4% in the third quarter," Brekke said.
