The Applicants and their affiliates will operate the Amitié system on a non-common-carrier basis, either by providing bulk capacity to wholesale and enterprise customers on particularized terms and conditions pursuant to individualized negotiations or by using the Amitié cable system to serve their own internal business connectivity needs. The existence of robust competition on U.S.-U.K., U.S.-France, and (more broadly) U.S.-Western Europe routes obviates any need for common-carrier regulation of the system on public-interest grounds.

  • ACM Propopes Regulation of Vodafoneziggo
    27 February 2018 Europe/Netherlands Equity Research Integrated Telecommunication Services KPN (KPN.AS) Rating NEUTRAL Price (26 Feb 18, €) 2.64 RESEARCH BULLETIN Target price (€) 2.85 Market Cap (€ m) 11,091.3 Enterprise value (€ m) 18,168.1 ACM proposes regulation of VodafoneZiggo— Target price is for 12 months. Research Analysts our thoughts & EC readacross Paul Sidney 44 20 7888 6015 [email protected] The Neths Telecom Regulator (ACM) has published its draft Neths market analysis on wholesale access today which takes into account new analysis of the Neths Telecom market. What is the ACM proposing? The ACM has concluded that both KPN and VodafoneZiggo have collective Significant Market Power (SMP) and that, as a result, both need to be regulated. The ACM adds that neither KPN nor VodafoneZiggo have individual SMP. Specifically: ■ For KPN, the ACM proposes to continue to regulate KPN's unbundled access copper and fibre products (virtual or otherwise) by providing access to KPN's network to alternative providers on reasonable terms. ■ For VodafoneZiggo, the ACM is proposing for VodafoneZiggo to offer access to its cable network on reasonable terms. The ACM is not proposing, at this stage, to impose wholesale tariffs on VodafoneZiggo but if VodafoneZiggo cannot reach agreement with alternative operators it would then, in our view, look to intervene. VodafoneZiggo will have three months to realize this access under the proposal. ■ The ACM does not propose to allow KPN or VodafoneZiggo regulated access to each other’s networks, ■ The ACM also commented "For new types of access such as VULA over FttH or wholesale central cable access, ACM gives KPN and VodafoneZiggo the freedom to negotiate access conditions in consultation with alternative providers.

  • Vodafone: Managing Advanced Technologies and Artificial Intelligence
    9-318-109 FEBRUARY 20, 2018 WILLIAM R. KERR EMER MOLONEY Vodafone: Managing Advanced Technologies and Artificial Intelligence There are big new winds blowing—in data analytics, automation and artificial intelligence—and they will not blow exactly in the same way across all of the organization. In my fleet some boats will gain speed, while others have smaller sails and won’t capture the same momentum. The question is whether you allow each boat to go at its own cruising speed—as we did in the beginning—or if you want to align the fleet and wrap it into a big program, as we are now trying to do. Aligning the boats is helpful for the organization, but you also risk forcing them into a linear speed that ends up being blown away by disruptors. — Vittorio Colao, CEO Vodafone Group On a grey January morning in 2018, Vodafone Group CEO Vittorio Colao gazed out of his London office. Having recently launched the Digital Vodafone program to improve the customer experience and boost revenue and cost efficiency1, Colao was pleased with the quick early wins. He mused, “I don’t pretend to be particularly creative or innovative. Like every other company, we want to have the most engaging digital customer experience. We want to blend the best of our physical assets, which tend to be people or retail shops, with a digital interaction that is easy, instantaneous, but most importantly, personalized.”2 Colao highlighted the program’s main aspects, “On the customer side, we are looking to use big data to produce personalized offers for our customers—which will help us to optimize our channel mix—and to support customers more effectively and efficiently via chat bots and artificial intelligence (AI) applications.
