AI Technology Programs Driving the Future of Mobile AI

A future where AI technology powers intelligent mobile networks, seamlessly connect and enriching lives around the world.

GSMA believes that new AI technology in mobile networks and mobile phones will drive global adoption of intelligent connectivity, delivering unprecedented societal and economic progress becoming the new growth engine for the telecoms industry.

Powering intelligent connectivity through AI technology for mobile networks

The GSMA technology initiatives operate on three core principles that guide our activities and deliver value to our members:

Our guiding principles

Drive collaborative innovation

We galvanise the industry to innovate across two symbiotic fronts: evolving ‘Networks for AI’ and advancing ‘AI for Networks’ to ensure new AI technology fits seamless between technology and telecom needs.

Guide industry evolution

We provide a clear perspective on the evolution of network operators into intelligent value creators, helping members navigate new business models and operational efficiencies.

Accelerate the adoption of AI in mobile

We act as the central hub for creating the shared frameworks and standardised approaches needed to deploy AI technology in mobile networks and mobile phones globally, responsibly, and at scale.

Our activities shape the future of AI technology in mobile
