Let’s imagine you were going to start a new telco from scratch, today in 2020 – with no legacy network, no existing subscribers, no expectations – a totally fresh start.
- Would that new telco offer the same services you offer today?
- Would your new network look the same as your current network?
At our virtual conference Model Telco 2020 we’ll explore what this might look like, and how you can transform your operations into a truly modern telco.
We’ll look at this from a few different angles, so whether you’re a product manager, a CO tech or a leader responsible for the voice network, we’ll have something for you.
What’s a virtual conference?
In 2020, it turns out that traveling on a plane and gathering in-person in large groups is no longer a good idea, so this virtual conference will offer some of the same benefits but without the travel costs or the risk of catching a deadly disease.
- Each day we’ll have 1 hour of conference content, so you can easily attend while still performing your core duties.
- This content will be a mix of webinars, panel discussions, and networking opportunities with others in the industry.
What’s the Agenda?
Monday November 9: Introducing a Model Telco for the 2020s
2pm ET / 11am PT
As an industry we are hampered by regulation and tradition. If we were to start a new telco from scratch it would be very different to most of the ILECs and CLECs offering service today. In this opening presentation we’ll put together a business plan for success in the 2020s.
Tuesday November 10: A Simple Network for the 2020s
2pm ET / 11am PT
The days of big iron switches and TDM connectivity should be in the past. How should we build a voice network today that avoids wasted capex and allows us to be lean and flexible in our service offerings.
Wednesday November 11
To honor Veteran’s Day, no events will be held.
Thursday November 12: People Networking Day
2pm ET / 11am PT
This session will provide an opportunity for some networking with other members of our community. We’ll ask some big questions (about the challenges transforming into a Model Telco, about changes in the industry, etc) and we’ll discuss them both as a large group but also in break out rooms so you get a chance to meet with fellow service providers.
Friday November 13: Model Services for a Model Telco
2pm ET / 11am PT
What do consumers and businesses care about in 2020? Are the services we offer to our subscribers the ones they want, or just what we’ve always done? What would a simple but powerful product offering look like for our model telco?
