FYUZ

As we move into 2026, the Telecom Infra Project is executing against its strategic priorities for the year ahead. The global industry calendar is already underway, including Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, and TIP is entering the year with strong momentum and clear direction.

FYUZ 2025 landed several messages from the Telecom Operators leading the Open Optical & Packet Transport community at TIP.

During FYUZ 2025 we heard from multiple speakers and presentation strategies of using AI for networks, as well as how to build networks for AI with monetization in mind. On Monday, FYUZ Day 1, Thierry Nagellen, VP of Research at Orange, highlighted some of the work that TIP’s TelcoAI Project Group have been working on at the opening mainstage panel session. Agentic AI was a key topic, and remained a consistent topic across multiple talks throughout the course of the event. T
