Description

The telecommunications industry gets a bad reputation as being slow to adapt new technologies. It's one that Abhishek Sandhir, the managing director of Sand Technologies' telecommunications division says is not wholly earned.

There's a lag between other industries because of the investment required to fund technological transformations, Sandhir said while speaking to Beyond the Cable at Connected Britain.

Instead, telecommunications investments are focused on building new infrastructure.

"That's why you see that lag in adopting the technology because the focus is on maintaining the lead compared to the competitors," he said. "That only comes with investment in the current way of thinking. That's what we're trying to change."
