300 senior commercial and technical execs will be gathering in London at the end of March for the 2nd Telco 2.0™ Industry Brainstorm to generate fresh ideas for improvements in three core areas: Business Models, Service Portfolios and Next Generation Networks. We will be using our unique interactive approach (‘Mindshare’) to structure the process. The thread running through it all is: 'How to create new value for end-users' (More)
