“It is needed, it is definitely needed. 35 players in Europe have less than 500,000 customers on the infrastructure. So they can never play. They're only interested in contribution to margin. They're only trying to survive the next quarter, but they're not investing strategic long term. So the return on capital employed in the European market is half of the return on capital employed in the US. The prices of the US market are three times higher per customer than in Europe, so that is good for customers. But the consequence of this is the industry in the US is investing significantly more into modern infrastructure than they are able in Europe.”

“From that time, Europe created a market of 27 markets where the political idea was in every market we need something like four players. Now, that means we have more than 100 players for a continent like Europe.”

“The way the first thing is we have to split between the US and we have to split between the European market. And by the way, that is even, you know, historical way of dealing with things. In the 90s, the margins of the telco industries were very high. And by the way, I think our industry made a big mistake that time with very high roaming charges, not opening up the market. So the regulator had to intervene and highly regulated that market at that time. While in the US, you know, this market was growing. It was not regulated at all from the beginning. Different policy was taking place. Spectrum was not rented. Spectrum was sold. So different ways of dealing with the same environment.”

“work on the different features of the 5G ecosystem. So this will be a new trend that developers can access the 5G APIs directly in a fully automated way.”

“By the way, we see a 30 to 40 percent data traffic increase every single year, and our industry is producing this without any additional revenue increases. So therefore, you know, Moore's law is hitting us even more than in the classical IT industry. So we have to find ways of being more productive. We have to automate our services. We have to make it as well in the 5G space easier for developers to connect to the infrastructures. We have started an initiative from the whole mobile industries, GSMA, to open up APIs that developers can work on the different slices, as we call it, in the 5G. So if you don't need low latency, you don't get it. If you need high latency for highly automated services in the production area, you can experiment that. If you want to have, let's say, just a connectivity, you can”

“Somebody needs that? Why three G services? And today, if we have a 3G service, we already complaining because we need the data throughput, we want to see the videos, we want to share everything with our spouses. And the industry is getting connected. And the same is happening with 5G. I see this, that this low latency is getting important for the car industries to be always best connected. It is an issue which we see in the connection of with home offers and the way of collaboration across different countries. So therefore, yes, the 5G cases will show their impact, especially in the IoT sector.”

“Look, change your life. To be honest, we haven't really found a business case for 5G because people like to have more connectivity. They like to have it faster. And they don't see the advantage of low latencies yet. But it was always the case. I'm in a veteran in this industry. I'm here more than 25 years. And, you know, there was a question, why should we send pictures?”

“I see that every single day, and I believe this world is fragmenting more and more individual interests are more important than the global society. And therefore, yes, I strongly see a trend that the fragmentation will go on. See what's happening with the BRIC states in Africa. Think about, let's say, Russia and its allies. Think about China. And therefore being the North Star for the Western world with regard to one of the most important products, connectivity. I think that's Nesset.”

“Look, the values are the same between the US and Europe. The cash is easily transferable between this Western world. The decoupling and the geopolitical situation which we are facing this year, these times, is something which is affecting telecommunication as well. 60% of the internet today is not anymore an open internet. It is politically limited in its possibilities, but we as Deutsche Telekom are only operating in the Western world, in the US, and in Europe. And that's a strong advantage. On top of that,”

“Look, the challenges are big. Our industry, because people think connectivity is a human right. A lot of, let's say, political influences are taking place on our industries everywhere. And I think the biggest challenges are different on the continents. Deutsche Telekom is only operating in the Western world. I think that's a big advantage. Why?”

“Today, 5.3 billion people of 8 billion are connected. And we are at the verge of it. I believe for a society which is living better together connectivity is a must.”

“The first thing is 5G and fiber is the enabler of the next generation wealth. Everything is getting connected. Everything is connected. And without networks, nothing is working. So our company has a big purpose. We are connecting not only societies, but we are connecting as well the flying wheel for the business industries in this environment. What are the big trends? The first trend is more data available everywhere, always best connected. Second, it's about new business models. We have on the one side the Web 3.0 development, digital twins in the B2B area. On the other side, AI is enabling a lot of new services as well our industry. And on top of that, the world, the globalization only works while people are talking.”
