Operators must use cutting-edge transformation software to move beyond connectivity and offer new services for greater revenue growth in the 5G era. This software, particularly on the IT side, must be able to intelligently unify edge cloud, monetize different cloud domains, automate virtual RAN and leverage partner-centric revenue streams for multiple verticals. Operators must create multi-partner business models to monetize 5G and match the rapid pace of innovation in the industry. This will require business models with rapid service innovation and dynamic settlements in a B2B2X setting for consumers, businesses, government agencies and other entities.

It will accelerate the achievement of national goals and indicators such as the Online Services Index (OSI), Ease of Doing Business Index, the Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index, the Global Competitiveness Index as well as innovation indices.
The Internet in the Gulf States region has made enormous strides over the past decade in terms of growth. This has largely been driven by the digitalisation across different industries, economic development in general, and innovation in mobile Internet services. However, one factor consistently acting against this has been a lower level of interconnection compared to what we see in other regions. Less peering means higher latency, increased costs, and lower security (as local traffic passes through foreign centres of interconnection). As more people come to rely on latency sensitive applications like streaming, gaming and IoT, this approach might not be very sustainable over the long term.
