Panel: From capacity to assured AI services - capturing the AI connectivity revenue opportunity

AI traffic growth alone will not guarantee profitable growth. The opportunity is to turn network performance, resilience, security and route control into premium services designed for specific AI workloads. This session will explore services including assured data movement, dedicated connectivity between AI data centres and GPU clusters, on-demand performance for inference, sovereign AI connectivity and end-to-end AI Corridor as a Service. Leaders will discuss what customers will pay for, how these services should be priced and how corridor partners can share revenue, risk and accountability. 

• Which AI connectivity services solve a clear customer need and command a premium? 

• Who are the priority buyers, and what commercial models will they accept?  

• How can carriers monetise assured workload outcomes rather than commodity capacity?  

• How should corridor partners share customer ownership, revenue, risk and accountability?  

• What will turn AI-driven traffic growth into sustainable, higher-margin revenue?
