IP has eroded the market boundaries between telecom, media, IT and advertising and the web. Value chains are in turmoil. Application and content services are growing more valuable than traditional telecom transport. Competition comes from all quarters. The predictable earnings of the utility era have given way to the uncertainty of on-demand services. For those correctly positioned, the new digital ecosystem will provide all the opportunities the converged information services marketplace has to offer. Those who fail to adapt face strategic peril. How do firms anticipate and direct strategic change in the world “Beyond Telecom”?
PTC’07’s Opening Plenary will feature Larry Keeley, President of Doblin, Inc., a leading innovation consultant. He specializes in advising companies how to embrace big ideas, and to employ human centered social research and industrial design to crack the code of strategic transformation. He is followed by Srinath Narasimhan, Executive Director of VSNL India, recently named Telecom Asia’s CEO of the year, who is charting VSNL’s acquisitive strategy to establish a global managed services platform. Our final speaker is Shin Cho, SVP and chief strategy officer at SK Telekom, arguably one of the most sophisticated service providers in the world that continuously presses the frontiers of service innovation and discovery. Come hear what the leaders have to say about innovation and what it takes to prosper in the years ahead.
