Telecommunication

Telecom operators must move beyond connectivity. With Europe lagging in 5G investment, regulatory fragmentation, cybersecurity risk and digital competition, telcos need an agile, resilient and customer-centric model. At rpc, we help telecom clients link infrastructure with experience—co-designing customer propositions, modernizing platforms, and enabling sustainable, compliant growth.

 

Key challenges

Infrastructure scalability: Europe trails behind in 5G standalone and gigabit coverage, limiting edge innovation and digital parity. 

Cybersecurity & compliance: Telcos must comply with NIS2, DMA and national security mandates, securing edge networks, IoT and customer data.

Green operations & inclusion: Pressure to reduce carbon emissions, while closing connectivity gaps in underserved regions 

Business model shift: Traditional telco revenues are threatened by OTT and private operators; telecoms must now monetize across services and ecosystems.

User experience expectations: Customers demand seamless service across fixed, mobile and enterprise services—digital, self-serve, yet trusted.
