Great first day of action at The 2016 Canadian Telecom Summit, from start to finish. Dan Caruso, CEO of Zayo Group opened the conference and we wrapped up with a panel consisting of FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai and CRTC Commissioner Raj Shoan, moderated by Globe and Mail reporter Christine Dobby, before getting down to serious socializing and networking over drinks and hors d’oeuvres.
I’ll try to capture the news coverage in this post. Let me know if I am missing any links:
- Mobile data and bandwidth demand to skyrocket by 2021, requiring 5G network: telecom execs; Financial Post
- Carriers still pay lip service to customer experience: Cartt
- Patch quickly to check ransomware, Canadian telecom industry warned: IT World Canada
- Telecom CEO: “Empower the right person with the right skillset to step up at the right time”: IT World Canada
- CTS 2016: “Carriers still pay lip service to customer experience”: Cartt.ca
The panels covering regulatory issues may be too late in the day for news coverage.
CPAC is recording these sessions and plans to release the programs later this summer.
