The end-of-year edition of CORCOM’s Web Summit will be dedicated to taking stock of strategies and investments. Cloud and new generation networks are the pillars of digital transformation and the convergence between Tlc operators, IT and Tech companies is revolutionising the scenario.

But it will be necessary to speed up the roadmap, outline the priorities and clear the path of criticalities

CORCOM’s web summit, scheduled for 14 December from 11am to 1pm, is dedicated to taking stock of the Cloud challenge, one of the Draghi government’s priorities in terms of digitalisation.

Fixed and mobile ultra-wideband, ultra-performing data centres, new-generation technologies and applications: the game will involve the entire economic fabric of the country. PNRR resources will be crucial, but the real leverage is represented by private investments, those made by telecommunications operators in synergy with big tech and IT companies.

“The Italian Cloud game can represent an important opportunity also for the telecommunications sector, which is increasingly important for the future of the country, but at the same time is increasingly torn apart by price wars that heavily influence its revenues – underlines Andrea Rangone, President of DIGITAL360 -. What is needed is an awareness on the part of everyone – Telco management, regulators and politicians – that telecommunications is a strategic sector for our country and must therefore be wisely protected”.

For Tlc operators, interesting business opportunities are opening up, also and above all thanks to cloud-based projects and services, and partnerships with the key players in the cloud ecosystem, from web companies to IT and Tech companies, will be increasingly fundamental,” emphasises Mila Fiordalisi, Director of CORCOM. Italy needs to accelerate in this direction to regain competitiveness and close the gap with the most advanced economies”.
