Revisiting TBR’s 2025 Predictions: What We Got Right (and Wrong) About Cloud and Telecom Markets

How accurate were TBR’s 2025 predictions for cloud and telecom markets? In this episode of “TBR Talks,” Principal Analyst and Host Patrick Heffernan reviews TBR’s 2025 telecom and cloud predictions against the year’s actual market developments as well as what these developments mean for our 2026 predictions in an age of AI-enabled research and analysis.  Last year Principal Analyst Chris Antlitz predicted major communication service providers would not realize ROI from 5G investments, which they did not, while Principal Analyst Allan Krans predicted Microsoft Azure would close the gap with Amazon Web Services in the IaaS market, which it did. Patrick walks listeners through each leading analyst’s process for making predictions and discusses with them how AI has and has not changed the way they go about making their market predictions. Listen and learn with TBR Talks! 2025 Cloud Predictions 2025 Telecom Predictions Submit your Key Intelligence Questions for Patrick and his guests ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Learn more about TBR at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://tbri.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with Patrick on LinkedIn Connect with Chris on LinkedIn ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with Allan on LinkedIn⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠TBR Talks is produced by Technology Business Research, Inc.
