Customer wallet is shifting from traditional telecom products and services to

ICT, creating new opportunities but also a challenge to the existing business

model

• Significant new wallet created in the areas originally dominated by IT firms

• Traditional telco revenues in decline

• ICT providers are also positioning themselves to offer traditional telecom services,

pushing telecom incumbents into becoming wholesale providers and losing the end

customer relationship

As a result, most telcos increasingly successful in penetrating areas originally

dominated by IT firms

• Leading players currently generate up to 20% of revenues in the business segment in

ICT

• Moreover, ICT also contributes to protecting revenues from traditional telco business

TO2‘s Strategic challenge
