Spring is here and industry events are in full swing. We just returned from the Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona, and there was certainly a big buzz about everything mobile! As always Telecom Review is in attendance at all of the important industry gatherings and we look forward to seeing you there. We will be at the Incompas, Canadian Telecom Summit, TIA, Interop, ITW, and TEX events in the next few months.
IOT and Cloud continue to be big drivers of new changes in our industry. In this issue you will see several articles and interviews that address the subject. We met up with the CEO of Ericsson, Hans Vestberg, recently and as you can see by that article they are very excited with these changes.
There is an interesting article in this issue regarding Technology, Artificial Intelligence and industry changes that was put together by the Telecom Review Analyst Team. Artificial Intelligence is a hot topic that may sound trendy, and in the future, but it is here today and we all need to monitor this development closely.
The sponsorship opportunities have just opened up for the 2016 Telecom Review Leaders Summit. These are described in this issue so please check this out and book your sponsorship early. Last year’s event exceeded previous attendance with Leaders from around the world in attendance!
