Why network sharing still struggles to scale — and what’s missing today
Teasol, Oguz Oktay, Founder & CEO
Network sharing has long been positioned as a practical way to improve coverage and reduce infrastructure costs.

In this NL Talk, we explore what continues to block scale in practice and what needs to change to enable neutral, interoperable collaboration across MNOs, MVNOs, Neutral Hosts, and private networks.
