Why join One Consortium

One Consortium is unique in several ways :

  • Purpose built to address a global societal issue (unwanted/fraudulent communications) from the perspective of the international telecoms industry : there is no other global industry association focusing on this issue, which is much broader than industry fraud. We look into international traceback, legitimate spoofing, trusted trunks, KYC/KYT, national CLIs and cloud numbers on international trunks and more.
  • Purpose built to co-develop with regulators, globally (GIRAF), the harmonized  “tool kit” that is needed to allow this industry to do its part. Like they say, if you’re not at the lunch table, you’re on the menu…
  • Brand new fast growing, inclusive, not for profit organization, with a twist : on top of traffic carrying members (voting), and vendors (non voting), major industry organizations have joined One Consortium in some shape or form (incl GSMA, i3Forum and many others).

Industry associations contribute what they have already developed on some specific aspects : One Consortium doesn’t reinvent the wheel, it builds on existing work,  brings it to the next level, and drives adoption globally – we need everyone !

The 2024 work was done without funding but in 2025 we need a small budget to further our efforts. There is a lot of effort that is needed behind the scenes to keep things moving forward and running smoothly. This includes scheduling and hosting meetings, coordinating between working groups and with regulators (GIRAF), outreach to publicize our work and recruit new members, project management and publishing best practice documents.
