13:40 - 14:00  
AI4RAN in Practice: Wireless Complaint Agent for Agentic RAN Operations
How can telecom operators introduce agentic AI into real RAN operations in a safe, traceable, and measurable way? As a workstream direction under the TM Forum AI4X project, AI4RAN focuses on practical implementation patterns for RAN operations, covering agent-based workflows, tool orchestration, knowledge reasoning, partner capability integration, governance, and closed-loop evaluation.
This session introduces the AI4RAN workstream direction and presents the Liaoning Wireless Complaint Agent as a production case study. It shows how LLMs, tool orchestration, multi-agent collaboration, partner capabilities, and multimodal evaluation can help transform wireless complaint handling from a reactive manual process toward a user-perception-driven RAN operations closed loop. The session will also briefly discuss how lessons from production cases may inform future reusable AI4RAN implementation assets and ecosystem collaboration.

Yuan Shen, RAN Marketing Solution Director, ZTE 

14:40 - 15:00 
From Blueprint to Autonomy: Come Build A Real Multi-Modal Agentic Systems utlising the TM Forum ODA 

This session demonstrates how telecoms can move beyond “AI pilots” by operationalising agentic systems using Pega’s Blueprint driven design and rapid “vibe coding” techniques.
Starting from business intent, Blueprint enables teams to model outcomes, journeys, and decision logic, which are then rapidly transformed into executable services through Pega’s agentic environment.
We will show how multi-modal agents (voice and digital) trigger orchestrated cases that coordinate across network, IT, and partner domains via the TM Forum AI-native ODA Canvas.  Using the approach and techniques that allowed for rapid collaboration with the TM Forum projects. 
 
Participants will explore and build using the practical techniques to:
 
Rapidly prototype agent workflows using Blueprint
Translate intent into governed execution (cases, SLAs, decisions)
Orchestrate multi-agent collaboration across ecosystem partners
 
The outcome is a scalable pattern for delivering autonomous operations and process without increasing operational complexity, driving up token economics or headcount. 

Fari Pirouz, Industry Principal Global Senior Director, Pega
Joe Armstrong, Principal Solutions Consultant, Pega
Agnese Arenaccio, Senior Solutions Consultant, Pega 

15:40 - 16:00

Lunch briefing: Navigating the AI hype maze: Monetizing autonomous networks, edge, 6G & AI Factories - Where will growth come from?

AI is everywhere but turning it into real revenue remains the challenge. As telcos move beyond experimentation, the focus is shifting from deploying AI to monetizing it across platforms, marketplaces, and ecosystems. Unlock new growth vectors. From AI-enabled operations and autonomous networks to edge-powered services and emerging AI factory models, the opportunity is clear, but so is the complexity. In this exclusive VIP session, leaders from AT&T, HCLTech, NVIDIA, and Beyond Now come together to share and discuss how CSPs can move from AI promise to measurable business impact.
