##########################

This was the initial kick off meeting for the LFN Strategy Working Group.

Brandon prepared and presented the a Strategy Overview Deck to set the context for the discussion.

The open discussion centered around the following points:

  • Central Ideas

  •  

    • How to make this exciting? Enterprise, etc.

    • Enterprise Sizing (very large accounts vs. smaller ones)

    •  

      • What are we actually trying to accomplish? (ties back to biz dev convos)

      • “Enterprise” a vague term, need to specify focus.

      • Determine the sandbox is we’re playing, what we’re going to do (and NOT do)

      • Smaller orgs move faster, very innovative

      • CNCF marketing example: Enterprise Vendors (target), enterprise end users. Ecosystem message vs technology message.

      • Magma Core Example “Bringing connectivey to 3rd world”

      • Alignment with the SPC (Both should align to board priorities) Synch with Jonne

    • 5G SBP → Are we focusing on Telecom (ONAP/Magma/Anuket)?

    •  

      • 5G SBP Targeting “Private 5G (LTE, eventually IoT)”

      • Evolution to xSP: Traditional, Regional, Cloud Services

    • Deployments: Enterprise: “Show how this works in my environment” Can we solicit members to build these PoCs? Version streaming
