Telecommunication globalization: The challenges of doing business globally
Doing business globally in the digital era means getting to grips with all manner of challenges. Quite apart from the fact that different customers in various parts of the world operate in their own time zones, there are also the questions of multiple languages and currencies, and fluctuating exchange rates.
Yet there is no question that digitization and globalization are upon us, and businesses that intend to thrive in this modern reality must take steps to ensure they have the right technical solutions in place. Such solutions must take into account the aforementioned differences in language, time and currency. They also need to facilitate platforms that are accessible to all partners, quickly, easily, from any location, and in real time. They need to be flexible enough to meet the needs of partners at different levels of technological maturity and operating their own business models. And, above all, solutions aimed at telecommunication globalization and unification must be secure, so that each partner can be assured that all possible steps are taken to prevent cyberattacks. It is possible to address these challenges by managing services in one place to offer a single, common solution that allows multi-stage modeling of offers tailored for each customer.

Case study: ngena
When ngena was established, the goal was to bring together the world’s leading telcos and allow them to provide data connectivity services anywhere, based on a shared network. Virtualization and automation technologies meant that such a vision could be realized effectively, letting ngena members deliver standardized, secure, easily-deployed, consistent and innovative hybrid VPN services globally.
The result is that ngena’s alliance partnerscan provide multinational customers with secure, standardized, stable, relatively uncomplicated and easy to deploy global hybrid VPN services.
