Beyond the ‘Dumb Pipe’: How Agentic AI and Sovereign Networks Are Redefining Connectivity23.6.2026 14:46:00 CEST | Press release
The global connectivity market is shifting. With traditional European telecom growth slowing to 2-3% by 2029, businesses must adapt through Agentic AI, critical communications, and digital sovereignty. To remain competitive, operators should move beyond infrastructure toward an API-driven economy. These trends took center stage at Comarch User Group 2026. The conference hosted over 700 partners from 53 countries, including 201 connectivity experts, highlighting how companies can thrive in regulated environments.
