The global MVNO and MVNE market is expanding rapidly. According to GSMA Intelligence, the global MVNO count has surpassed 2,100 operators, representing more than a 60% increase over the past decade, with Latin America alone seeing nearly fivefold growth in the same period. New MVNOs are launching across verticals, from retail and banking to utilities and media, while established players are under increasing pressure to evolve beyond their original value proposition.<\/span><\/p>","category":"blog","pubDate":"Thu, 23 Apr 2026 11:17:43 GMT","guid":"https:\/\/blog.qvantel.com\/blog\/beyond-the-sim-card-why-mvnos-need-agile-bss-to-compete-in-a-new-era"},{"title":"Monetize Anything and Everything at AI Speed:\u00a0Why Agile, AI-Driven BSS Is the Foundation of Telecoms Growth","link":"https:\/\/blog.qvantel.com\/blog\/why-agile-ai-driven-bss-is-the-foundation-of-telecoms-growth","description":"

While Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2026 seemed to be all about AI, AI, and even more AI, to me the most important announcement<\/a> of the week was about satellite connectivity. At MWC, Kyivstar announced that 5 million customers have now connected to its network via Starlink Mobile satellites. This places Kyivstar among the leading global providers of Starlink Mobile satellite connectivity. The number of users is remarkable when you consider that Starlink Mobile direct-to-device (D2D) satellite connectivity was only launched by Kyivstar in November 2025.<\/p>","pubDate":"Mon, 23 Mar 2026 08:34:11 GMT","guid":"https:\/\/blog.qvantel.com\/blog\/satellite-connectivity-delivering-access-to-critical-communications-and-digital-services"},{"title":"Four Ways Operators Are Using AI to Increase Competitiveness","link":"https:\/\/blog.qvantel.com\/blog\/four-ways-operators-are-using-ai-to-increase-competitiveness","description":"

Telecom operators are facing a pivotal time. Pressures that have been building for the past decade are coming to a head.

Meanwhile, costs continue to rise, and the two major waves of transformation operators invested in \u2013 cloud and 5G \u2013 have yet to deliver the returns many expected.<\/p>","pubDate":"Fri, 13 Mar 2026 08:42:40 GMT","guid":"https:\/\/blog.qvantel.com\/blog\/four-ways-operators-are-using-ai-to-increase-competitiveness"},{"title":"Xtrim Selects Qvantel to Modernise BSS","link":"https:\/\/blog.qvantel.com\/blog\/xtrim-selects-qvantel-to-modernise-bss","description":"

As Agentic AI continues to roll out across many functions in Communications Service Providers (CSPs), the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is poised to become a major topic in 2026.
