Next Event  

Joint DCKTN and Future Wide Area Wireless SIG, ‘Networks and the New Economy’

The third instalment in this series studies the competitive advantage to be found in a range of networking possibilities with seven analytical presentations over the course of the day featuring topics ranging from low earth orbit satellite networks to greener energy networks and the possibility of super utility networks.

 

This full-day SIG event is championed by Geoff Varrall of RTT Programmes, Stirling Essex of CRFS and Graham Maile of Plextek, in partnership with Digital Communications KTN.
 
This third meeting analyses the convergence that is taking place between wireless and wireline networks at technology level both at the edge and the core, the implications this has for network bandwidth delivery cost and efficiency, the impact this is having on industry business models and how network convergence can deliver long term competitive advantage to the UK.
 
Listen to presentations from:
 
This full-day takes a comprehensive approach to all the possibilities and economic models currently being used with regard to networking and those that need to be considered for the future. The previous events in this series have been hugely popular, so booking is strongly recommended. The day will provide attendees with the chance to hear from the leading experts in the field culminating in a panel discussion interspersed with ample time to network. Book now to assure your place.
