Others are familiar faces.<\/p>\n<p>We do our best to keep the sessions fresh and relevant.<\/p>\n<p>For many, <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/CdnTS\" target=\"_blank\">The Canadian Telecom Summit<\/a> is a chance to meet with colleagues, suppliers and clients to connect and to do business.<\/p>\n<p>There is a trade delegation from Austria joining us this year and we have delegates attending from every province and territory, as well as Europe, Asia and the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you will be with us in person. You can teleconference all you want, but there is nothing yet that replaces face-to-face encounters, whether meeting officially or just casually meeting while waiting for the barista to finish pouring your double-shot 2% latte &#8211; no sugar, thanks. I\u00e8m sweet enough.<\/p>\n<p>Through the years, these chance meetings have been invaluable for many of our regular delegates. Sometimes, you don\u00e8t even know who you needed to meet, until after you met them. As an aside, there is an important message in there for the people who drafted our soon-to-be proclaimed, e-commerce inhibiting anti-spam laws. But I won&#8217;t get into that now &#8211; maybe over a drink on Monday evening at the cocktail reception.<\/p>\n<p>Follow the event on Twitter using <a href=\"http:\/\/j.mp\/JCHmrU\" target=\"_blank\">#CTS12<\/a>.
