INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
ATT Chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson was a guest at the Recode 2018 Code Conference last week
He shared some very interesting comments on both the changing state of ATT and of the entire communications industry
Listening to the interview, it became crystal clear the industry and competitors continue to change and new competitors continue to
enter.That why ATT wants to acquire Time Warner
They see the changing industry and they want to remain competitive as the industry changes and new players enter the market challenging
them.As I have always said, deciding whether to approve the ATT, Time Warner merger or not is a simple matter of choosing which direction to
look
If we look backwards, companies like ATT and Verizon are telephone and wireless companies, period
Looking forward, all the companies in the industry must transform and grow beyond their core roots in order to remain competitive.
