    conference quote

    "IP interconnection represents a significant opportunity for service providers to discover new services and revenue sources to drive future growth"

    With the boom in VoIP traffic and IP based multimedia services, telecommunications operators and service providers are investing significantly in upgrading their core networks to IP based technologies. This enables enhanced service delivery and helps them achieve cost savings. To achieve all this however there is the need for effective interconnection between telecommunications networks – which are increasingly becoming IP based. This conference will update on latest regulatory efforts and examine evolving business models and technological investments that service providers are making.
