AI-RAN is redefining enterprise edge intelligence and autonomy
Partner ContentVB Staff April 7, 2026 Presented by Booz Allen AI-RAN, or artificial intelligence radio area networks, is a reimagining of what wireless infrastructure can do. Rather than treating the network as a passive conduit for data, AI-RAN turns it into an active computational layer. It’s a sensor, a compute fabric, and a control plane for physical operations, all rolled into one. That shift has huge implications for industries from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and smart infrastructure.VentureBeat spoke with two leaders at the center of this transformation: Chris Christou, senior vice president at Booz Allen, and Shervin Gerami, managing director at Cerberus Operations Supply Chain Fund.“AI-RAN can bring the promise of extending 5G and eventually 6G networks into…
