Episode 3: Being invisible is hard work actually
This episode was recorded at the Orange Business "Insights 2024" analyst event in Amsterdam. Our guest is Wassila Zitoune, Chief Operating Officer at Orange Business. With her, we discuss how the ultimate goal of an infrastructure
operator is to be invisible to the end-user. Wassila explains how being professionally paranoid helps delivering a great experience on large events like the Olympic Games, whilst continuing the daily work for all existing customers. We cover the good and bad of regulation in telecoms and the balance between innovation and execution.
