BT is making its next generation network expertise available to other carriers. It has formed a business unit dubbed the 21C Global Venture (21C GV).
The move is a smart one for BT as it can continue to test its learning on different networks to its own. Carriers hiring BT's 21C GV meanwhile can avoid some of the teething problems BT is inevitably encoutering. And like telecom standards, the venture may even bring some uniformity to NGN design if uptake is strong.
The venture's contribution to BT's overall revenues may be marginal but it's a clever idea nonetheless.
