The new study indicates that NaaS will be the main driver of 5G earnings for operators, with nearly 95% of global operators expecting it to significantly increase their revenue opportunities significantly. The research assesses the in-depth readiness of operators to deliver Network-as-a-Service, in particular their ability to dynamically share slices of the network in line with vertical and customer needs.

The report examines the following:

• NaaS solution models and the role of zero-touch, automation-driven technologies in driving its deployment
• IoT verticals as the biggest growth contributor
• The rise of AI/ML in 5G network management
• The challenges operators face during network slicing and NaaS implementation processes.
