Our partner, FutureNet World, is hosting a leading industry event where telecom network automation, AI-driven operations and autonomous networks take centre stage.

As the industry undergoes a major structural shift, communication service providers are navigating explosive traffic growth driven by 5G, AI, cloud, and IoT, alongside rising operational costs, increasing energy pressures, and unprecedented network complexity across cloud-native, multi-vendor environments. 

With consumer expectations changing rapidly, talent shortages widening, and competition intensifying from digital-native and hyperscaler models, operators face mounting pressure to transform. At the same time, regulatory, security, and sustainability demands continue to grow. Automation and AI have become essential to managing modern networks, improving performance, and enabling the next era of autonomous operations. 

Taking place in London, FutureNet World 2026 brings together the global telecom ecosystem to explore how networks will operate in the age of intelligence. The event features: 

• 1,000+ senior executive decision-makers, including 35%+ CSP attendance 

• 150+ visionary speakers, including leading CTOs and industry pioneers 

• 10+ hours of curated networking across two high-impact days 

• CSP Executive Roundtables & Leaders in Tech Dinner for board-level engagement 

• Awards & Networking Party celebrating innovation in automation and AI 

FutureNet World is the year’s most influential gathering for leaders shaping the evolution of network automation, AI-driven operations, and autonomous networks.
