Scaling Intelligence: Capturing Value from AI-Powered Broadband and Cloud
Join us at BDC Shanghai on 25 June.
The convergence of AI, broadband, and cloud infrastructure is creating a new paradigm for value creation - one where tokens, intelligent workloads, and next-generation networks redefine how we utilise and monetise connectivity. Join industry leaders and technology innovators as they explore breakthrough approaches to capturing value from AI-powered infrastructure, building sustainable business models for agentic AI, and aligning network investments with the demands of the token economy.
Explore the strategic imperatives shaping this transformation: from monetising AI workloads on advanced broadband networks to crafting regulatory frameworks that unlock AI revenue potential. Learn how leading organisations are future-proofing their infrastructure investments, integrating cloud and AI capabilities for competitive differentiation, and leveraging real-world case studies to lead in this rapidly evolving landscape.
The WBBA brings together the minds shaping the intersection of intelligence, infrastructure, and value creation. This is your opportunity to gain actionable insights, connect with forward-thinking leaders, and discover how to turn AI and broadband convergence into measurable business advantage in the age of intelligent networks.
