Webinar - Virtual Packet Gateways and why you should care about them

Delivering global connectivity is becoming more challenging as enterprise demands increase. Meanwhile, with the rapid advancement of AI and edge computing and wider enterprise digital transformation, the network is becoming ever more important. There are significant technical, operational and regulatory challenges with providing consistent services globally, but network connectivity is often viewed simply as a commoditised service.

On the 11th September 2025, join Transforma Insights for a webinar sponsored by Stacuity, which examines how a distributed software-defined edge network connecting multiple packet gateways (P-GWs) can address many of these emerging challenges and enable connectivity service providers to offer differentiated and value-added services.

Key topics

During the webinar, the speakers will discuss:

• The network challenges for delivering global connectivity; including increasingly demanding applications, the headaches of providing consistent services across multiple networks and platforms, and regulatory compliance.
• Why the provision of consistent services globally matters, both to connectivity service providers and to end-users.
• The concept of edge-as-a-service, focussing on the provision of cellular network packet gateway (P-GW) services and the challenges associated with traditional P-GWs and how virtualisation can overcome these.
• The security, routing, observability and regulatory benefits that can be achieved with virtual edge infrastructure – enabling the provision of agile, efficient, effective and compliant services worldwide.
• The commercial benefits of a virtualised approach, including scalability and flexibility, cost efficiency and resource optimisation.

About the sponsors

Stacuity has developed an innovative, software-defined, global mobile core network and edge packet gateway (P-GW) to bring true cloud-style agility to the management of mobile connectivity. This empowers connectivity providers and their enterprise customers with flexible, real-time control, down to individual IMSI level. Using Stacuity, connectivity providers, such as mobile operators and MVNOs, can build more valuable and differentiated offerings for their downstream customers. Cost and complexity have been removed from the whole value chain, by turning traditional mini-projects (e.g. VPN administration and packet-tracing for troubleshooting) into self-serve capabilities.
