An interesting panel discussion this afternoon at #CapacityMiddleEast
🔥 Exploring the future of voice across the Middle East
Panelists discussed how, despite predictions of its decline, voice remains a key revenue stream for operators - and with AI-driven use cases such as virtual agents and voice recognition on the rise, its importance is evolving rather than fading.
The conversation explored how managed services can enhance customer experience and drive new revenue, how operators can monetise growing AI-related traffic, and how VoIP restrictions may impact the adoption of emerging voice-based services.
Panelists included:
Florence Sébastien, MD - FSE CONSULTING
Zaher Chami, Senior Sales Director - Orange Wholesale & International
Mohammad Alwhaidi, Business Development Director, MENA - LANCK TELECOM
Edwin van Ierland, COO - iBASIS
Harun Hasić, Product Director - ZIRA GROUP
"In the last 15 years I've been in this industry, in at least 10 of those years somebody declares voice to be dead in January, and it's somehow resurrected in February"
"The (voice) business is changing - it's not the minutes business anymore, but the trust business"
