New report with @disruptivedean for @STLPartners on connected vehicles. The C-V2X market may finally be on the move: https://t.co/PjHcWNuMgx

@Stansted_Exp @TanimDrums Hundreds of passengers have been stranded at Broxbourne station for about an hour and will now miss their flights because you can't get coaches there quick enough. Don't you plan for these kinds of situations?

[STL Partners @STLPartners]

For many telcos, the disruption caused by a shift to web 3.0 could open up opportunities to rebuild relevance and revenues in the consumer market.

STL Partners is conducting a survey to understand telecoms operators’ strategies for edge computing. This research project seeks to provide insights on how telcos are building edge infrastructure and how they are working with hyperscalers.

Today I'm writing to @OliverDowden @DCMS with the support of fellow parliamentarians who share my concerns on grassroots sport ⚽🏉🎾

Same in England now. The value of A-levels has just taken a big hit. This cohort is being shafted left, right and centre.

‘In Scotland there were no checks . . . it degrades every single exam result’

https://t.co/tvbgmpJOwC Govt seems to have forgotten the Wednesbury test. Where you have a discretion ignore irrelevant considerations take into account relevant and make an objectively fair decision.

The #Covid19 crisis is making car rental even more fraught than usual. We booked (and paid) for two rental cars with @holidayautos, but didn't get either because of gotchas in the small print we had no chance to see. Asked for a refund and now being ignored.

@Orange reported a 3% fall in capex for Q1. But it is still backing fibre big-time: "Our fibre deployment continues to accelerate with close to 40 million households now connectable to the fibre optic network." For more on capex trends in Europe, see: https://t.co/TElLHMcPYk

Even after COVID-19 is under control, we will need new ways to care for the elderly & infirm. In my new report for @STLPartners, we explore how telcos can help reduce the number of people that need to go into hospitals and care homes in the longer term: https://t.co/LrvI8YzDH4

[Office for National Statistics (ONS) @ONS]

Of the 10,645 deaths registered in the week ending 20 March, 103 mentioned #COVID-19 on the death certificate https://t.co/Uon5ZuyoWe

@Amazon is one of the few companies that can successfully coordinate the online & physical economies. As @TelecomTV explains here, telcos could learn a lot:

[STL Partners @STLPartners]

Can telcos learn from Amazon's 'relentless focus on convenience'? Great summary by @Ian_TTV @TelecomTV
of @DavePrin latest research -> https://t.co/STaZGRGHFH

[David Pringle @DavePrin]

What can telcos learn from Amazon's expanding physical presence in North America & how it uses its assets to deliver multiple propositions to multiple customers? New @STLPartners report explores how telcos can better flex their physical strength: https://t.co/WWEfezULT3

[David Pringle @DavePrin]

In an age of machine learning & complex coordination challenges, the control points will be very different from those of the past. My new report for @STLPartners identifies where control points will emerge & what telcos can do to maintain competition: https://t.co/lOzV9hlcLl

[David Pringle @DavePrin]

For this STL webinar, I'll be joined by Thomas Rockmann, VP Consumer IoT, Deutsche Telekom, to discuss how telcos can carve out a central role in the burgeoning smart home market. You can register here: https://t.co/3xoY3pZShB

[STL Partners @STLPartners]

What's the big noise in smart homes? Telcos have opportunities in this space and it's a great tech opportunity with huge potential for customer satisfaction when done right https://t.co/HV4EapM7d1
