About the Telecom Infra Project:

The Telecom Infra Project (TIP) is a global community of companies and organizations driving infrastructure solutions to advance global connectivity. Half of the world’s population is still not connected to the internet, and for those who are, connectivity is often insufficient. This limits access to the multitude of consumer and commercial benefits the internet provides, thereby impacting GDP growth globally.

However, a lack of flexibility in the current solutions – exacerbated by a limited choice in technology providers – makes it challenging for operators to build and upgrade networks efficiently. Founded in 2016, TIP is a community of diverse members that includes hundreds of companies. From service providers and technology partners to systems integrators and other connectivity stakeholders. We are working together to develop, test and deploy open, disaggregated, and standards-based solutions. These solutions deliver the high-quality connectivity the world needs – now and in the future decades. Find out more: www.telecominfraproject.com.
