So, What Next?
“Change is universal… Change is permanent…
Be ever willing to change… For change always leads you to success
and happiness.”
“Be alert for the first sign of change Anticipate change when things are
going right Always look at the opportunity that
change presents.”
because
“Change is the only thing that will never change
So better adapt to it.”
The only change that came to our mind:
Lets not conduct NTS !
Taking a leap forward in our pursuit
We are replacing it with ATS!
ASIAN TELECOM SEMINAR
Why ATS? • Provide a platform to discuss issues concerning whole Asia Pacific region.
• Invite telecom operators from abroad especially those who are eying India as greener pasture.
• Opportunity for Indian players to learn from their experience.
• Discuss how the economies of countries are favourable for operators.
• It will provide networking opportunities for building and strengthening corporate relations.
Some issues confronting Asian Telecom:
• Driving 3G or Go Beyond!• Dynamics of telecom during slowdown.• ICT at BOP – Where lies the Buck?
• VAS – Bypassing Operators!• Telecom – Going Green!• Political Economy of Telecom in Asia• Incumbents vs. Operators!• Mobile Social Networking• Some Country specific Case Studies…
