Consolidation among service providers, risk-averse customer buying behaviors, and increasingly long sales cycles are threatening the very survival of telecom software vendors. Yet stifling innovation in this key area of the value chain will relegate service providers to low-value transport pipes, relative to nimble innovators like Google. Is telecom software innovation really doomed? Will investors flee? Are Europe and North America in the same boat? How can we stop the madness?
