As rural broadband providers continue to expand their fiber networks, many are exploring how mobile services can complement these efforts by offering new ways to serve their communities and diversify their revenue streams. This session is designed to give NTCA members a clear, practical understanding of how they can offer mobile services to their customers using mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) models without making heavy infrastructure investments.
The content is structured to be accessible and actionable, especially for organizations looking to better understand the opportunities and challenges of entering mobile space. You will be guided through how mobile services can enhance existing broadband offerings, improve member retention and align with the long-standing mission of connecting rural America.
The key learning objectives and takeaways of this session are:
- An overview of the MVNO landscape for rural providers
- Get a break down of the different MVNO models — full MVNO, light MVNO and reseller — and explore which options may best fit various operational and financial realities.
- The driving of value through bundling mobile with fiber
- Hear an explanation of how combining mobile with broadband can increase ARPU, reduce churn, and create a more compelling offering — all while staying true to a community-first approach.
- Launching mobile without building your own network
- Learn how with support from an MVNE, including core network and BSS, providers can quickly and cost-effectively bring mobile services to market, leveraging existing national networks.
- Supporting community connectivity in new ways
- Learn how mobile access plays a growing role in enabling telehealth, remote learning, public safety, and economic development in rural areas, beyond voice and data.
