This includes overcoming a fear of change, balancing the short-term returns and long-term goals, finding the right partners and talent, and focusing on their ability to provide valuable connectivity, Madkour says.
4. Mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) are on the rise
Telecom World 2018 featured a workshop on the rise of mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) . (...) RELATED: Top 5 trends for mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs)
“We have seen recently a surge of interest by MVNOs in joining ITU for essentially two main reasons: one is the numbering resources that the ITU offers to allow for MVNOs and operators to interconnect around the world and the second is the ecosystem that we provide for economic and financial discussions in terms of the opportunities for MVNOs to partner with operators and various industry verticals,” he says.

As a result in the UK the proportion of doctor’s visits happening over the phone or video rose from around 13 per cent in late 2019 to 48 per cent at the peak of the pandemic in April-June 2020. US-based virtual consultation provider Teladoc saw total visits treble to 2.8 million between 2019 and 2020. According to research by consulting firm STL, barriers to adoption of virtual consultations were lowered as pandemic pressure built and other barriers, such as insurers or governments not reimbursing or underpaying doctors for virtual appointments.

*The following article is adapted from my opening remarks at the ITU Regional Radiocommunication Seminar for the Americas ( RRS-20 Americas ), taking place virtually from 13-24 July 2020.
It gives me great pleasure to open this ITU Regional Radiocommunication Seminar for the Americas Region, which is being held in collaboration with the Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU).
(...) At ITU we are also making full use of technology to ensure our key meetings and events (such as this one) go virtual and we continue delivering to meet the expectations of our Members.
(...) As you have a very heavy agenda before you, let me conclude by thanking the CTU once again for collaborating with ITU in organizing this virtual Regional Radiocommunication Seminar. I wish you a very fruitful seminar.

Highlights from Day 2 presentations of academic papers
Machine Learning for data management shows significant potential to support cloud-optimized 5G networking, particularly by improving critical resource-management decisions with two-phase optimization schemes for virtual machine placement. See presentation .
Machine Learning could offer valuable support to automated 5G network slicing, contributing to the allocation and adjustment of network slices’ computing and network resources in tune with different service requirements and time-varying network workloads. (...) These networks could thus offer valuable support to Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things (IoT) applications by improving the allocation of physical as well as virtual resources. See presentation .
Future networks will be required to support massive-scale IoT applications, leading researchers to highlight the value of reinforcement learning in guiding IoT nodes’ decisions of which radio access technology to employ when reporting events, decisions which would aim to achieve sufficient throughput while limiting power consumption and operational costs.

If I were to speak only about the images of older women in television, this would be a very short presentation, since we are virtually invisible. Several studies have been made of programming and I base my observations on those studies and my own experience
First, some demographic facts: the 50 plus age group is the fastest growing segment of the U.S. population; the net worth of seniors is 5 times greater than that of other Americans; seniors control 48% of all discretionary spending.
(...) Shows attracting older audiences are cheaper to advertise on and are generally viewed with derision. (...) In a study conducted by the American Association of Retired Persons in 1996, it was noted that while older men have been barely visible on TV, older women have been virtually invisible. Those that do appear are defined by traditional social roles – their marital status and their relationship to family.

A 24/7 personal virtual assistant
Estonia is already thinking ahead about the future of AI for its citizens. (...) With an overwhelming majority of the country having access to e-services on their internet and mobile devices, Velsberg feels voice-based virtual assistants will make digital public services in Estonia more accessible and easier to use. (...) Another project looks at understanding different options such as a mobile app, a web-based service or collaborations with private sector virtual assistants like Amazon’s Alexa or Apple’s Siri.
