Connected Intelligence: Building the Intelligent Infrastructure for the AI Era

The next era of telecom is defined not by connectivity alone, but by intelligence. As networks, clouds, and industries converge, the foundation of competitive advantage is shifting to how effectively organizations transform data into insight, automation, and value.

In this roundtable, Snowflake and industry leaders from across telecom, technology, and mobility explore how intelligent infrastructure is enabling the evolution from network operations to network intelligence – where AI, automation, and data-driven ecosystems power new efficiency, resiliency, and monetization opportunities.

Together we’ll examine how global operators, technology vendors, and connected ecosystem players are building the data foundations for AI-native networks, reimagining operational automation, and unlocking new business models through shared intelligence. This is where connectivity becomes capability, and infrastructure becomes innovation.

Key Discussion Points

• The Evolution of Infrastructure: How telecoms are transforming cloud, edge, and network architectures into unified intelligent infrastructure capable of supporting AI at scale.
• AI and Automation in Action: Practical applications of AI in network operations — from predictive maintenance to self-optimizing systems and service personalization.
• Data Foundations for Intelligence: Why scalable, secure, and governed data platforms are essential to orchestrate real-time analytics and automation across hybrid environments.
• Ecosystem Convergence: How telecom’s role extends beyond connectivity into powering IoT, automotive, and enterprise ecosystems built on shared data intelligence.
• New Models of Monetization: Turning network and operational insights into new revenue streams via data products, APIs, and cross-industry data marketplaces.
• AI-Native Vision for 2030: What the journey to AI-native, self-evolving infrastructure and 6G-enabled ecosystems will look like — and what organizations need to do now to prepare.
• Human and Organizational Transformation: How culture, capability, and collaboration between operators, vendors, and cloud providers will determine who leads and who follows in the intelligent infrastructure era.
