Mistral urges telcos to get into the hyperscaler game


Mistral CEO Arthur Mensch brought a sales pitch to Mobile World Congress on Tuesday, urging delegates at the world's biggest telecoms confab in Barcelona

Asked whether European lawmakers should be taking inspiration from the Trump administration when it comes to slashing regulation, Mensch dodged the opportunity to make a full frontal attack on rules like the bloc’s AI Act. It is worth noting that Free is owned by Iliad, a telecom company controlled by French billionaire Xavier Niel, who is also an investor in Mistral. She joined TC after a stint reviewing smartphones for CNET UK and, prior to that, more than five years covering business technology for silicon.com (now folded into TechRepublic), where she focused on mobile and wireless, telecoms & networking, and IT skills issues.
