The Five Nine: What we have our eyes on in 2025

The Fierce Network crew made it back safe and sound – for the most part – from Mobile World Congress 2025 in Barcelona. But the show, which is essentially the official start to the year in telecom, gave us a lot to think about. 

We spent the week digesting what all the announcements from the show mean for the industry and now we're looking forward to what the rest of 2025 has in store for operators. Here’s what we have our eyes on.

This podcast is written and hosted by Diana Goovaerts. It is edited by Diana Goovaerts and Matt Rickman. Liz Coyne is our executive producer. Many thanks to this week's special guests Liz Coyne, Mitch Wagner and Dan Jones.
