Celfocus at FutureNet World 2026: Scaling Agentic AI for Autonomous Networks
Celfocus returned to FutureNet World 2026 in London, joining over 900 industry leaders to explore the next phase of network automation, AI-driven operations, and autonomous networks.

|---Module:text|Size:Small---| In a new venue, on the Intercontinental O2 in London, across two days of discussions, sessions, and networking, the focus was clear: how Agentic AI is moving from concept to practical application, accelerating the shift toward autonomous networks.

At this year’s edition, Celfocus showcased how Agentic Network Operations combine domain-aware AI, Generative AI, and autonomous agents to transform network management.

By converting complex network data into clear, explainable actions, this approach enables faster decision-making and more efficient operations, bringing operators closer to fully autonomous, self-optimising networks.

A key highlight of the event was the session delivered by João Miguel Antunes, “Implementing and Scaling Agentic AI for End-to-End Network Innovation”.

The session explored how Agentic AI is driving a new wave of autonomous network operations, addressing the role of Digital Twins as a foundation for intelligent agents, the application of real-world use cases from root cause analysis to service design and dynamic reporting, and the challenges and strategies involved in scaling AI-driven agents across complex network ecosystems.

|---Module:text|Size:Small---| As FutureNet World 2026 comes to an end, Agentic AI is no longer just a forward-looking concept, but an increasingly tangible foundation for autonomous network operations. Celfocus remains committed to helping operators unlock this potential, ensuring that automation evolves into scalable, explainable, and truly cognitive systems.

A final thank you to all clients, partners, and prospects who joined us in London.

Until next time, let’s stay connected and continue the conversation.
