Iquall Networks Celebrates Double Win at 2024 Catalyst Awards

Miami, Florida – June 24, 2024 – Iquall Networks is delighted to announce that we have been honored with two prestigious awards during our first participation in the DTW24 Catalyst Awards. This recognition underscores our commitment to innovation and excellence in network automation solutions. This edition marks our first participation, and we competed simultaneously in three teams.

• DarkNOC: GenAI propels insights driven NetOps
• Harnessing GenAI’s business value for operations transformation
• AI Smart CapEx for green and efficient network investment

Our project “Harnessing GenAI’s Business Value for Operations Transformation” won two awards in the AI Challenge and Business Impact categories and was a finalist in the Use of TM Forum Assets category. This project aims to optimize the Operations and Maintenance process by following the autonomous operations models defined by TM Forum, integrating components of the Open Digital Architecture supported by GenAI on our platform. This initiative seeks to improve incident resolution times, network quality, and reduce repetitive manual tasks.

Hernán González, Innovation Manager at Iquall Networks, expressed,

“We are proud to work hand-in-hand with the industry’s leading vendors and service providers, showcasing the value of the products and people that are part of Iquall Networks’ value proposition. Our strength lies in having cutting-edge technology while maintaining the flexibility to adapt to highly demanding projects with diverse processes and governance.”

Marcos Sitz, CBDO and co-founder of Iquall Networks, reflected on the journey thus far:

“In the 2023 edition, we saw the Catalyst Awards as the perfect vehicle to collaborate with the industry and demonstrate that we are more than just a presentation. We are a company dedicated to creating practical solutions for the real-world challenges faced by today’s telecommunications providers.”

Additionally, our project “AI Smart CapEx for Green and Efficient Network Investment,” in collaboration with Orange, Du, AWS, Locatium AI, Snowflake, and Netradar, reached the finalist stage. This project focuses on improving CAPEX efficiency and reducing OPEX through the integration of advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies.

Lastly, our project “DarkNOC: GenAI Propels Insights-Driven NetOps,” in collaboration with BT Group, AT&T, STC, IBM, Infosys, Red Hat, ServiceNow, and MycomOSI, although it did not win this year, shows great potential. This project focuses on creating a complete, cloud-native technology stack for network and service assurance management. We look forward to continuing into Phase 2 and achieving success in future Catalyst Awards.
