What’s our Cloud event all about?

There are many events on Cloud Computing around the globe, but very few stand out from the crowd! Among the most talked-about Cloud events of the year, the Telco Cloud World Forum (formerly the IIR Telecom Cloud Services Summit) shows that the buzz of the Cloud resonates across the full spectrum of the telco industry!

200 delegates and more than 60 Cloud expert speakers joined us last year in Berlin for our 2012 event. It is still the only event that explores cloud computing from the telecom operator perspective.

Security, infrastructure optimisation, regulation and legal frameworks, marketing and CEM are among the core topics to be thoroughly explored at the 2013 Forum that features over 50 sessions across four different streams.

We are also launching a dedicated session to Big Data from the perspective of telecom operators.

But it’s definitely not just telcos that we attract: from Google and Amazon to Greenpeace and ENISA, the entire ecosystem of Cloud Computing is here with us, to secure delegates & clients from every sphere of the evolving world of the Cloud.

For 2013, we are launching our ‘Cloud Makes you Appier’ Zone that brings together the key players of the App industry to discuss how telcos can transform their outreach.

End-users are also a highlight in the event’s agenda with previous cases by the Cloud VPs of BMW, Morgan Stanley and News International giving insightful perspectives of their needs and proving why telcos are indeed best positioned in the Cloud Ecosystem.

This is the only event a telco professional needs to attend year on year to keep up to date with what’s happening in the Cloud Computing world, optimise their strategies, secure high level networking and learn what your competition is up to in 2013 and beyond!
