How Paradise Mobile Is Redefining Connectivity with AI and Open RAN

Paradise Mobile is a 5G+ greenfield mobile network operator based in Bermuda and building one of the world’s first fully cloud-native, AI-integrated Open RAN networks. Designed with and for AI from Day 1, leveraging cloud-native Open RAN and AI-driven automation, Paradise Mobile’s network enables real-time decision-making, intelligent energy optimization, and dynamic service creation at the edge. The Paradise Mobile network is redefining what’s possible for connectivity and innovation. Its greenfield approach allows for rapid deployment, flexible experimentation, and continuous learning—using small island nations as agile test beds for innovation.

“Our mission is to reimagine connectivity from the ground up. We’re proving that small markets can lead global innovation, not follow it,” says Sam Tabbara, Co-Founder and CEO. “We’re reimagining what’s possible for connectivity by fusing telecom, cloud, and AI into a single, intelligent fabric.”

Changing the Dynamics. Accelerating the Future.

Paradise Mobile’s architecture embodies the same principles that define the AI-RAN Alliance: openness, intelligence, and adaptability. The company operates its entire network stack on commodity x86 compute — across public cloud, private data centers, and the cell edge — eliminating proprietary hardware constraints. This enables workloads to move dynamically between environments in hours, and allows new services, algorithms, or AI capabilities to roll out in days or weeks rather than quarters or years.

Paradise Mobile is also among the first telcos globally to deploy agentic AI in production across all domains—enabling real-time autonomous decision-making in both network operations and customer experience. Its single “plane of glass” management layer provides unified visibility and control from physical site alarms to handset analytics, enabling predictive operations and proactive customer support.

The Right Mix

“We joined the Alliance because we believe that the future of telecom won’t just use AI, it will be built on AI,” says Tabbara. “The AI-RAN Alliance brings together the right mix of visionaries, researchers, and operators to accelerate that transformation. For us, it’s an opportunity to contribute insights from a live AI-native network deployment while learning from the best minds shaping the future of intelligent, software-driven connectivity.”

Paradise Mobile is particularly focused on two Alliance initiatives—AI-on-RAN and Data-for-AI.
“AI-on-RAN supports our vision of running inference and generative AI workloads natively at the edge,” Tabbara explains. “Meanwhile, Data-for-AI speaks directly to our belief that data quality and accessibility are the bottlenecks to realizing AI-native networks.”

Opportunities Ahead

Tabbara believes that AI will transform RANs from static infrastructure into living, learning systems — self-optimizing, context-aware, and capable of predicting demand before it happens. “The RAN of the future won’t just connect devices,” he points out. “It will understand intent, behavior, and environment, creating a dynamic network fabric that continuously adapts and improves itself.”

He identifies three major opportunities shaping the future of greenfield, AI-native networks:

  • Autonomous network operations that reduce OPEX and lower carbon footprint.
  • Edge-based intelligence that unlocks new classes of low-latency, immersive services.
  • Cross-operator learning that improves training and accelerates global AI innovation.
