Summary of IMS World Forum 2014

It was a funny old IMS World Forum, I found it both uplifting and depressing. Uplifting in the presentations from SK Telecom, Rogers, and Orange as they took control of their future and are delivering business results on service innovation.

IMS. What Choice Do You Have? IMS World Forum 2013 Summary.

In the effective duopoly of IMS core supply between Ericsson and Huawei, it’s fair to ask, “IMS.  What choice do you have?”  Talk to many people in Telecoms not directly working on IMS and they’ll simply right it off as dead.  For a dead technology, the conference was very much alive, the busiest I’ve ever […]

IMS World Forum: Quick Summary

The IMS World Forum was a packed event, with 250+ attendees, up over 20% compared to last year.  At first sight it’s fair to ask, why is a conference required on IMS, isn’t it old-hat?  That’s just the point, IMS is becoming main stream so the question is not about whether or not to deploy, […]
