Delegates enjoyed priceless, practical content and proven expertise from 150 speakers presented across the three days including CxOs from North America s leading carriers. The conference agenda was packed with 7 focused tracks covering the hottest topics and providing quality content. The keynote panel discussion on Day 2 was a particular highlight for many as Google, AT&T, MetroPCS, and Sony Mobile joined together to discuss and debate how to ensure effective collaboration to realise the benefits of LTE. The exhibition floor was a hub of networking as sponsors and exhibitors hosted back-to-back meetings with targeted, senior-level decision makers, and made use of the meeting rooms and dedicated networking zones.
