Telecom Asia Awards 2018: Inspiring digital innovation

NTT Communications is no stranger to innovation. When the company saw an opportunity in SD-WAN but faced an increasingly crowded market, it focused on enabling customers to innovate for the future.

“NTT Com is best positioned to support clients in their journey towards full digitalization using IT by leveraging a global private backbone that reaches to over 190 countries/regions and directly connected to all major cloud providers, broadband access to virtually every country in the world and the best SD-WAN technology as part of an end-to-end managed solution,” said Ivano Rondelli (pictured left), director, marketing, network services, NTT Communications.

For this it picked up the Best NFV/SDN Implementation award.

With solutions for factories, vehicles, product manufacturing and healthcare, the company’s recent forays into IoT helped it bag the Most Innovative IoT Project award.

As the technology enters mainstream it is looking to become a major player.

“In preparation for the coming full-scale IoT market expansion in Asia, NTT Com is building experiences in end-to-end IoT solutions including building management, predictive maintenance and telematics in Japan,” said Naoki Wakai (pcitured right), president and CEO, NTT Singapore.
