On this week's episode of Top in Tech, Adriana Capparelli, Practice Director for Technology, Media and Telecoms, is joined by Senior Associates Natasha Dixon and Russell Lamb to unpack one of the most complex policy dilemmas in today's tech landscape: copyright in the age of artificial intelligence. They explore the current UK and EU approaches to balancing creator protections with AI innovation, as policymakers grapple with how to regulate the use of copyrighted material in training AI systems. From recent development on the UK Data (Use and Access Bill) and criticisms from the creative industry - including Paul McCartney and Elton John - to the EU Code of Practice on Generative AI, this episode examines where regulation stands - and where it might be headed next.

In this episode of the Connected Leadership Podcast, Andy Lopata welcomes Rory Murray, Rory has more than 25 years' experience across Europe, Middle East, Africa, plus the US, Canada and India.  He has worked with some of the world's largest companies, delivering change and transformation projects in multiple sectors including Government, Telecoms, Power, Internet, Oil and Gas. Andy and Rory explore the critical role of relationship-building in leading successful projects. Rory shares insights from his work across sectors and highlights how neglecting stakeholder dynamics often leads to project failure. He emphasises that projects aren't just about systems or processes; they're about people. When organisations rush to implement changes without consulting frontline employees, resistance and attrition follow. Rory stresses the importance of stakeholder mapping, active listening, and understanding the “why” behind resistance to align project goals with individual and team needs. Drawing on real-world examples, Rory illustrates how empathy and evidence-based influence can turn sceptics into allies. He contrasts the challenges of external consulting versus internal project management, noting that trust, respect, and likability are foundational to driving buy-in. The conversation also examines cultural nuances, such as building relationships before discussing business in regions like the Middle East. Finally, Rory introduces the concept of Return on Relationships (ROR), arguing that investing in genuine connections pays exponential dividends over time. What we discussed: 1. Stakeholder Mapping Done Right: Why identifying and engaging the “right” stakeholders—especially grassroots implementers—is critical to project success. 2. Like, Trust and Respect: Rory's framework for building influence by aligning project outcomes with individual goals. 3. Evidence Over Ego: How to navigate resistant leaders. 4. Cultural Intelligence: Lessons from working in the Middle East and Africa on prioritising personal relationships before business discussions. 5. Return on Relationships (ROR): Why investing in relationships—not transactions—creates long-term value. Rory's actionable advice on bridging gaps between strategy and human dynamics will transform how you approach your next initiative. Tune in for real-world stories, practical frameworks, and a masterclass in turning resistance into collaboration.

Editor: GVEC has urgently requested its members to contact their state representatives to oppose Texas HB 3445 and 3448 sponsored by Drew Darby-R and HB 5604 sponsored by Rafael Anchia-D. The electric co-ops in Texas have allowed Telecom companies to use their poles to convey communications. Therefore, the Telecoms don't have to provide their own poles. A good deal indeed. These three house bills will force the co-ops to allow the Telecoms to attach equipment to these poles at a very low price. Essentially the co-ops would lose control over their own poles. So, what do the sponsors have to...Article Link

"We've moved from big bundles to à la carte chaos—there's a middle ground that offers real value and differentiation," says Chad Dunavant, EVP & Chief Strategy and Product Officer at CSG. Subscription-based services have reshaped the way businesses generate revenue and how consumers engage with brands. But has the explosion of subscriptions created more frustration than convenience? Chad joins Technology Reseller News to discuss the next evolution of subscriptions, telecom monetization, and customer engagement. The Subscription Economy: A Double-Edged Sword Subscription models provide businesses with predictable, recurring revenue streams, allowing them to scale efficiently. Consumers originally embraced subscriptions for their flexibility and ease of use. However, as Dunavant points out, many customers now find themselves drowning in multiple subscriptions, leading to frustration, bill confusion, and declining brand loyalty. From Bundles to Fragmentation – The shift from cable TV mega-bundles to fragmented streaming services has created consumer fatigue. Confusion & Lack of Transparency – Many customers are unaware of price increases or struggle to manage multiple services. Loyalty at Risk – Brands must balance monetization with clear value propositions or risk losing long-term customers. Telecoms & The New Opportunity in Subscription Monetization As telecom providers move beyond connectivity, they are uniquely positioned to bundle value-added services like streaming, cloud solutions, and enterprise tools. Dunavant highlights how telcos can use their scale to negotiate wholesale partnerships with digital service providers, creating discounted, frictionless experiences for consumers. Power of Wholesale Agreements – Telecom providers can secure better pricing for consumers by bundling third-party services with connectivity. Monetization Beyond Connectivity – New revenue streams include integrated streaming, cloud apps, and AI-driven services. Personalized Engagement & Billing – AI-powered billing solutions can proactively notify customers of changes, reducing call center frustration.

The 21-day Manifestation is back sign up here before 2nd January 2025- https://pausepenny.com/product/january-21-day-challenge KEY TAKEAWAYS Having a goal in mind and imagining yourself achieving it is a powerful way to influence your subconscious to spot every opportunity. You have to take action. Often, that means pushing yourself to take a step you may not feel 100% ready for. When someone does something well, take the time to tell them. We all need to offer more encouragement. It lifts people and inspires them. Don´t be so self-critical. Having a purpose is vital. Wanting to give back and do so in a way that protects the planet, and its people is what drove Zelia to found Conscious Convert. When you create products that truly meet the needs of your customers and fits in with their values they are incredibly thankful, which makes you feel amazing. Sometimes good is good enough. If you are a perfectionist you can easily get stuck in a rut. Don´t try to manifest too many things at once. You´ve only got so much space in your head and so much mental energy. If you want to support the planet, make one change a month. Your efforts really add up. Being in a manifesting group is powerful – when you are a bit low the others are there to pull you up. BEST MOMENTS “It´s all about who you're surrounding yourself with .” “Tell them how great they are. Tell them they did a good job, even if it's a little thing, because it makes a huge difference.” “Everything I do, I want to make a difference.” “I do believe you still have to put yourself out there.” “They (the workers) are protected now, not just respected.” “If you're following your passion and purpose … you'll start to connect certain dots in your life.” “That tribe comes when you put yourself out there, when you start following your passion and your purpose and believing in yourself.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://consciousconvert.com https://global-standard.org Sign up for Yvonne´s 21 Day Manifestation Challenge here - https://pausepenny.com/product/january-21-day-challenge VALUABLE RESOURCES website: pausepenny.com Instagram: @yvonnetchrakian_manifest @pause.penny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-tchrakian-64257619/ HOST BIO Yvonne started her career as a corporate lawyer for one of Ireland's top law firms.

We begin with a breaking story that has significant implications for national security and global telecommunications. The 'Salt Typhoon' hacking scandal, involving a Chinese state-sponsored group, has compromised the networks of multiple U.S. telecommunications companies and providers in numerous other countries. This sophisticated cyberattack has allowed hackers to steal critical metadata, revealing who made calls, when, and from where—though not the content of the calls themselves. This breach poses a serious threat, particularly as it targets the communications of senior U.S. government officials and political figures. Despite ongoing efforts to eliminate these intruders, the hackers remain embedded in the affected networks, underscoring the urgent need for enhanced cybersecurity measures.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

There's no guest this week, which is just as well as they didn't have enough cameras to record three people anyway. The lads start by examining the many ways America is trying to starve China of access to semiconductors. That inevitably involves Huawei, which is the main proxy for this initiative, and they eventually move on to discuss Europe's hesitance to do what the US tells it regarding Huawei, before concluding with the latest signals concerning the telecoms recession.

Get your buzzers ready. We get competitive this week. Can you beat Alex in spotting the links to past episodes? Who'd have thought that Gladdie Park could be so well connected? And just around the corner was a unassuming building with a big story to hide. Partly the underground bunker, and partly their contribution to code breaking in WW2. Bletchley Park was the main centre for British codebreaking. Telecoms engineer Tommy Flowers and his team at Dollis Hill provided the equipment to break the most secret of all the codes. The Lorenz code of the Gerheimschreiber machines used by German high command. And if anyone doesn't know what Taskmaster is, where have you been? Learn more about your ad choices.

In this eye-opening episode of Exploit Brokers, your host Lauro dives deep into the recent cyberattacks that have compromised major U.S. telecommunications networks. Chinese state-sponsored hackers, known as Salt Typhoon, have exploited a 30-year-old backdoor mandated by U.S. law, targeting giants like AT&T, Lumen (formerly CenturyLink), and Verizon. Drawing inspiration from Friedrich Nietzsche's quote: "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster... when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you." We explore how attempts to control and monitor can sometimes backfire, creating vulnerabilities that malicious actors can exploit.
