Telco Program Highlights
5G for the Telco and Enterprise of the Future | Session ID: F454 | Runtime: 30 minutes/on demand | with Phil Mottram, Jeff Edlund and Martina Kurth, Asssociate VP, Head of Telco 2025 Research Europe
The move to 5G has become more critical than ever to increase agility in the Telco core network and simultaneously unlock the potential for enterprises to drive the next industrial revolution by powering economies and helping countries and enterprises emerge stronger after COVID-19. Explore ways you can embrace the open cloud-native 5G Core to increase agility and deploy edge compute offerings to drive innovation.
Enhancing the Mobile Experience: Digital ID From eSIM to Digital Persona | Session ID: B386 | Runtime: 15:00/On demand | Featuring Julia Cutler
With numerous companion devices connected to each of us, our cross-device service experience depends on identity sharing mechanisms. The adoption of eSIM as a mainstream option and the upcoming adoption of Wi-Fi 6 and 5G intensifies usages of more devices, each with the ability to roam through different networks, with different identities. For Enterprise, this is also an opportunity for improving inter-connectivity of employees, ‘things’ and systems, with secure, cross-device, cross-network identity sharing.
Orchestration of the Edge in a 5G World | Session ID: B387 | Runtime: 15:00/On demand | Featuring Rolf Eberhardt
With the huge growth of data at the edge and developments in AI/ML, the next industrial revolution will be powered by edge compute. Service providers are uniquely placed to combine value-add apps, with connectivity and their central offices close to every enterprise, to deliver edge compute solutions. The key to making this successful is to ensure apps are easy to deploy and manage across distributed sites. HPE's aaS intent-based edge orchestrator enables CSPs to manage apps and drive revenue streams that OTT cloud competitors can’t duplicate.
Changing the Way 5G Telco Clouds Are Built | Session ID: B388 | Runtime 15:00/On demand | Featuring Claus Pederson
Telcos are preparing for 5G, but they face unsustainable management complexity due to the scale, distribution and vendor diversity required to deploy 5G services across thousands of sites. HPE has, with partners, announced a standards-based Open Distributed Infrastructure Management initiative and solutions to resolve the complexity of managing 5G infrastructure. To accelerate adoption of these standards across Telco and enterprise infrastructure, HPE will contribute the majority of the solution implementation to the open source community.
Live interactive demonstrations
Live demonstrations will be running for 2-3 hour windows, at the top and bottom of each hour between Tuesday and Thursday in times suitable for EMEA, AMS and APJ. After registering, add the showcase times for your region to your agenda via this link.
Transforming the Telco Core Network | Demo ID: D202 |Chris Daniel, Lee Hines, Andy Bryant and Nancy Lichtle
Transform the Telco core network to an open, agile, cloud-native 5G core, and discover the benefits of 5G slicing.

(Demo Experience/Live Showcase hours: Tuesday, June 23, 10:30 am -1:30 pm US PT and Wednesday June 24, 10:30 am -1:30 pm US PT)
Capture the Full Potential of eSIM With HPE Digital Identity | Demo ID: D208 | Nacho Blazquez, Julia Cutler and Luca Prati
The growing adoption of eSIM devices has already made it clear that carriers need the right tools to enable inter-connected devices and services. In these times of shelter-in-place and social distancing, we rely more than ever on carriers for the on-demand, cross-device connectivity for our personal and professional lives. Join us for a demo on the tools necessary to meet subscribers' expectations for inter-connected devices that can securely access multiple platforms and services. For a more detailed discussion, please visit this demo during our live hours.
Monetizing Innovative Telco Edge Services | Demo ID: D206 | Hans Aagesen, Uwe Pecis and Rolf Eberhardt
Telcos need to grasp the opportunity to monetize the edge of the Telco cloud through multi-access edge computing (MEC) in order to deliver new services and retain revenue that would otherwise flow to the OTT cloud competitors. We will present how Telcos can use edge orchestration to offer workloads, such as video analytics, to enterprise customers for deployment across HPE Edgeline servers. For a more detailed discussion, please visit this demo during our live hours.
Infrastructure Management and Automation from the Telco Core to the Edge | Demo ID: D203 | Jonas Arndt, German Castro
HPE Resource Aggregator for Open Distributed Infrastructure Management mitigates the complexity of 5G multivendor IT infrastructure management. This demonstration showcases how the resource aggregator facilitates management of infrastructure components like compute, Ethernet fabrics, domains, networks and end points in a vendor-agnostic fashion, paving the way for building fully automated end-to-end infrastructure management solutions. For a more detailed discussion, please visit this demo during our live hours.
