Competitive Carriers Association’s 2017 Annual Convention will take place later this month with an impressive keynote lineup and conference program that will explore business strategies, policy initiatives, and technology innovations that will drive the competitive ecosystem for months to come. CCA will be celebrating 25 years of advocacy at the Fort Worth Convention Center, October 25-27.
Former governors Jeb Bush of Florida and Martin O’Malley of Maryland will headline the keynote program in a fireside chat with Steven K. Berry, CCA president and CEO, and discuss the importance of a nationwide public safety network and how carriers and states can work together.
In addition, FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn and Callie Field, EVP, Customer Care, T-Mobile, will provide keynote remarks. Executives from ATN International, Ericsson, Huawei Technologies USA, Nokia Networks, and Sprint will participate in a keynote panel and address how carriers are innovating their approach to servicing customers and the critical need for access to mobile broadband services across North America.
“CCA’s 2017 Annual Convention marks 25 years for the association, and I can think of no better keynote speaker lineup to mark this significant milestone,” said Berry. “I look forward to hearing about the amazing progress our industry has made, including innovative ways to reach and retain consumers and look ahead to the technological and regulatory developments that will deliver true mobile broadband ubiquity to citizens in both rural and urban areas,” Berry added.
The Convention’s conference program will provide insight into IoT, 5G, voice over WiFi and LTE, customer retention, mobile marketing, and policy priorities like infrastructure and access to spectrum. Attendees will hear from leading tech innovators and policy makers who will share insights and best practices around policies, business challenges and opportunities in the mobile carrier ecosystem.
