- Aduna aims to create seamless global APIs for developers
- CEO outlines go-to-market model and customer pricing strategy
What happened: Aduna CEO unveils unified network API platform for global deployment.
In an exclusive interview with Telecoms.com, Anthony Bartolo, the newly appointed CEO of Aduna, outlined the company’s strategy to bridge the gap between network API supply and demand. Aduna, a joint venture launched last year, plans to create a unified platform for network APIs, making them accessible globally to developers.
Bartolo shared his vision for the company, emphasising the importance of partnerships with Communication Service Providers (CSPs) and developer platforms such as Google Cloud. Aduna aims to simplify the global deployment of applications by harmonising network API access, enabling developers to deploy products across multiple countries without dealing with the complex, time-consuming negotiations of individual CSPs. Bartolo also discussed the company’s fixed pricing model and the seamless customer ownership model, which encourages collaboration among its partners.

Why it’s important
Aduna’s approach to harmonising network APIs addresses a significant challenge faced by developers working across multiple countries. By simplifying the process of obtaining and deploying network APIs, the company hopes to accelerate product development and reduce the operational friction that developers currently face. This could have a profound impact on the telecom industry, especially in emerging markets where rapid deployment and consistent service delivery are critical.
The strategic partnerships and pricing model outlined by Aduna aim to foster collaboration between CSPs, developer platforms, and network providers. This model could set a precedent for how the industry collaborates to deliver scalable, global solutions. The absence of large players like Nokia in the framework indicates Aduna’s focus on innovation and streamlining efforts, which could lead to faster time-to-market for new applications.
