WORKSTREAMS 11:20 Work Stream 4:

Work Stream 6: Reviewing how TADHack can create a
service innovation pipeline
TADHack proved to engage developers beyond anyone's expectations with 700 registrations and 500 attendees. But how can we harness this service innovation pipeline into telcos? The innovators are there and willing to hack on telecom APIs, the technology is mature, but there is a gap. How do we close it with specific steps that deliver business results.

WORKSTREAMS (continued) 12:00 Work Stream 4:
Innovation in legacy consumer services
12:00-12:40 Work Tables Table 1. Voice Innovation Marketing, pricing and bundling of
the most basic service – phone calls. How can we convince customers that “talk is good”?
Innovation in plans, such as hybrid pre/post-pay options, migrating users up to rolling one-month contracts etc.
How can new voice services be deployed without resorting to complex VoIP apps? Can we exploit the traditional phone call for messages, social chat, opinion polling, advertising or other mechanisms? Can the “missed call” be monetised?
Table 2. Text and Data Innovation How can SIM Toolkit applications
be exploited to deliver interactive or commerce services to all?
What new use-cases are emerging for text-based VAS?
Managing the risk of cannibalisation by so-called OTT apps, when featurephone users start accessing the web and apps
How can we rekindle the adoption and use of fixed-line services for homes and small businesses?
Whether to “sell your soul” to Facebook’s Internet.org, WeChat or Twitter for basic zero-rated data services, or low-end per-day data plans
12:40-13:00 Synthesis and Conclusions
Work Stream 5: Processes for successful new service
commercialization 12:00-12:40 Work Tables Table 1. Telco View Should Service Innovation be
structured separate from the rest of the organization?
When does corporate protection of new services get removed so cannibalization can be addressed?
How do we break from the traditional ‘plan and build everything and launch ready to scale to millions with little feature flexibility’?
Innovation means ‘failure is part of the process’, what are the criteria to define failure rather than continuing to searching for the right recipe?
Service innovation with partners is critical, it’s a core assumption of the TAD Manifesto. But how should it be managed?
Table 2: Partner / Developer View What are telecom application
developer requirements for effective partnering?
What are the best processes for working with Ecosystem partners?
What are the typical budgets, people, team mix, approach to market that leads to service innovation success?
Innovation means ‘failure is part of the process’, when do we drop a service versus adapt the plan?
12:40-13:00 Synthesis and Conclusions
Work Stream 6: Reviewing how TADHack can create a
service innovation pipeline 12:00-12:40 Work Tables Table 1. TAD innovation showcase Discuss and agree recommendations on how a TAD Innovation Showcase can enable anyone to demo services created by the TADHack community to promote not only the service but all the commercial and go to market issues that filter great ideas to market successes. Table 2. A TAD Best Practices Given the different markets, different channels, different people all result in a large range of numbers on revenue share and commercial terms, what commercial aspects can be recommended to accelerate success? Table 3. TAD-Accelerator program Discuss and agree recommendations on a TAD Accelerator program where developers can be introduced to mentors, investors and possibly even development partners to assist them in creating commercial outcomes from their services. Getting funding for anything telecom related is close to impossible thanks to the closed nature of telcos and their large vendors which have scared investors away. 12:40-13:00 Synthesis and Conclusions
