14:20 – 15:00
The AI-Native Blueprint: Path to Network Autonomy via Knowledge-Driven Twins and Agentic rApps
Discover how knowledge-driven digital twins and agentic rApps can accelerate the journey toward network autonomy. The session demonstrates how knowledge graphs support anomaly prediction, root cause analysis, and faster fault resolution to enable more autonomous operations.
Led by Zinkworks
15:20 – 16:00
Wall-to-Wall Fault Management
Explore an end-to-end intelligent fault management solution using agentic AI to enable cross-domain orchestration, automated self-healing workflows, and reduced mean time to resolution (MTTR).
Speaker: Yuan Shen, Director of RAN Marketing Solutions, ZTE
16:20 – 17:00
Change Management Towards AgenticOps
How should change management evolve in the era of Agentic AI? This session explores how people and intelligent systems can collaborate to safely execute simple and complex network changes while maintaining governance, control, and operational confidence.
Key topics include AI-driven processes, CI/CD, GitOps, automation, governance control points, human-in-the-loop operations, and increasing levels of autonomy.
Speaker: Alexis Koalla, Orange

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.
