MENA Telecoms Executive Forum
Mon 21 January 2008 - Wed 23 January 2008
The 4th MENA Telecoms Executive Forum is taking place during January 21-23, 2008 in Dubai, UAE. MENA Telecoms Executive Forum is a comprehensive and high-level event which examines the evolving telecommunications environment as a whole, emerging technologies, service developments and strategies that will ensure market players remain competitive in deregulated as well as newly converging markets.
The Middle East has demonstrated explosive growth in recent years, with liberalization increasingly becoming the buzz word of the region. The region boasts of some of the highest mobile penetration rates in the world and is witnessing rapid growth as competition drives the market and promotes investment in the telecoms sector. Already incumbent Telcos are entering a phase of consolidation, buying new licenses and acquiring established operators in other areas of the Middle East and Africa. With mobile tariffs at their lowest, operators will need to differentiate themselves from the competition and capitalize on emerging technologies by introducing new value-added services and enhanced service portfolios. This in turn will drive growth in the already rapidly-growing Internet and Broadband markets, allowing scope for triple and quadruple play services.
The MENA Telecoms Executive Forum provides a unique opportunity for attendees to assess the growth potential of the Middle East region which has demonstrated explosive growth in recent years, with liberalization increasingly becoming the buzz word of the region. The region boasts of some of the highest mobile penetration rates in the world and is witnessing rapid growth as competition drives the market and promotes investment in the telecoms sector.
Executive-level speakers will discuss some of the most pertinent issues facing the MENA Telecoms world today including current and future opportunities associated with liberalization, expansion and consolidation, fixed and wireless broadband services, as well as emerging technologies, WiMax, 3G, HSDPA and the multimedia services associated with these.
