    ON DEMAND | Webinar – Video shouldn’t have to cost the Earth

    RECORDING NOW AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON DEMAND – REGISTER BELOW

    Video streaming is by far the largest content category on the internet and the primary driver of growth.

     

    As the cost of energy soars and the climate crisis becomes more evident, it has never been more important to ensure that video traffic is handled as efficiently as possible without impacting customers’ mobile experience.

    In this webinar with the Mobile Video Council (MOVIC), we look at how it can be achieved, who is responsible for making it happen and the obstacles they face. We look at the approaches taken so far and whether they need to be updated or completely overhauled.

    These and other relevant issues such as network neutrality are discussed by the panel which comprises:

    • Santiago Bouzas, Director of Product Management, Enea AB
    • Matthias Sauder, Director Access & Transport Networks, Telefonica Germany
    • Amy Cameron, Principal Analyst, STL Partners
    • Moderated by Annie Turner, Editor, Mobile Europe

    The discussion looks at:

    • Pressures on the network and evolution of network conditions
    • Current landscape and things that are likely to change in the year ahead
    • Soaring cost of energy, and how much is video adding to the bill
    • The ‘fair share’ argument
    • Video protocols and optimisation
    • Network management incl. use of AI
    • How content providers can help
    • Sustainability and ways of reducing carbon footprint
    • Do telcos need to rethink their value proposition to customers, such as selling tiered pricing – running slower speed to get more out of capacity and classifying traffic?
    • and more

    Note: The Mobile Video Council (MOVIC) was introduced by Openwave Mobility (now part of Enea) to focus on best practices for streaming mobile video content efficiently while safeguarding and improving customers’ experience.
