Loved kids have many names—just like “Network as a Service” or “Application-Aware Network.”

Mobile networks have long had powerful Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities. These tools have been part of the standard toolkit since the early days of 4G. But here’s the challenge: leveraging QoS in practice isn’t something a single company can do alone. It takes coordination across multiple players, MNO, RAN, Core, Applications. It requires a shift in how business is done.

Enter Private Mobile Networks (PMNs)—the new kid on the block. PMNs don’t just bring connectivity. They challenge the status quo by enabling a new kind of control, flexibility, and business logic. It’s not just about technology—it’s about rethinking the ecosystem.

The opportunity for MNO?

Smarter networks that actually understand application needs.

The challenge?

Building partnerships and business models that let us deliver the vision of smart network.

Cumucore provided the mobile core and have developed the APIs that are used to change network performance to meet application requirements

Cathal Kennedy – CTO of the Telenor Group

“Telenor’s solution started with a customer focus – asking the question ‘what if hashtag#5G (and beyond) networks and its various advanced features could be offered on demand and tailored to our customers’ business and industry with just an hashtag#AI conversation?’ The ability to simplify 5​G service ordering by harnessing the power of AI, APIs, and automation is critical to our ability to support customer adoption and enable easy access to specialised network capabilities such as ultra-low latency for Industry 4.0 and eHealth, and portability for emergency networks. Our innovative approach also enables value-added services to be easily added on top by the customer, such as mission-critical services relevant in emergency networks and rescue missions.

This win is a true testament of Telenor’s commitment to driving customer-centric solutions and advancing the capabilities of 5G networks. This win would also not be possible without the collaboration with our ecosystem of partners including Airbus, Airolit, Cumucore, Druid, Emblasoft, ENEA, i2i Systems, Intel, Nokia, Oracle, Oslo University, and Red Hat.“
