Rakuten is now transforming telecom

Our approach is radically different from traditional telecom, starting with digitalizing all business processes—from planning, deployment, operations and moving into one  platform and philosophy.

With software driven cloud-native networks, continuous overlap and interplay are the foundation.
Telecom is no longer a static operating model but continuously adjusts based on customer needs of the moment.

Those that adjust the fastest will have the best network performance, the least cost, and  time to market advantage — fostering the most sustainable and energy-efficient networks.
