Open Networks, Open Platforms (1 of 5)

Posted on April 29th, 2010 by admin in telecom service providers | 1 Comment »

To some extent, leading service providers already are running networks that are partially “open,” and partially platforms for “services.” In a standard consumer “triple play,” for example, the voice and video are “walled garden” services while the broadband Internet access mostly is an “open” environment. In the future, industry executives believe “open networks” will play a more-important role. This keynote panel will take a look at some of the ways “open” networks and platforms will change the way service providers do business, how they develop and deploy new services. If service providers are to avoid becoming “dumb pipe” providers, new features, value and revenue will be created from “open” networks. What might we expect in that regard?

Has Divestiture Worked? Panel 1 – Historical perspective

Posted on February 11th, 2010 by admin in telecom infrastructure | No Comments »

The Internet Society – NY Chapter (ISOC-NY) & the Open Infrastructure Alliance (OIA) present a 25th Anniversary Assessment of the Breakup of AT&T

The goal of this conference was to outline the history of the last 25 years, discuss the current market issues, then give a view of the future of broadband and telecom in the US that has been mostly untold in the media. It is a future that leads to ubiquitous, very high speed networks based on an infrastructure that is open to all competitors — giving customers choice, lower prices and new quality products and innovative services. And widely acknowledged as critical for long term economic growth.

How does America get gigabit, open and ubiquitous, broadband telecom infrastructure?

EVENT: Has Divestiture Worked?
LOCATION: Warren Weaver Hall, NYU
DATE: Mar 6 2009

PANEL 1: Historical perspective:
* Bruce Kushnick – An overview and leading financial indicators. What happened over the last 25 years?
* Dean Landsman & Tom Allibone – Consumers: telephony costs and other issues of broadband.
* Ken Levy – Living history, perspective from within FCC during the Break Up!
* Alex Goldman – ISP/CLEC industry: regulatory follies over the past decade
* Mark Cooper – The Failure of Market Fundamentalism in the Telecom Sector: How Deregulation Derailed Divestiture or The Operation was Successful, but the Patient Died
