Workshop will help delegates to build a rich and well-founded view of the dynamics of the next-generation of innovation and regulation in telecomms, and develop strategies to survive and prosper.

Digital technology is now delivering on the 1990s promise of cheap, ubiquitous, converged communications The worldwide web has permitted an unprecedented level of access to information, and has democratised application and service development

We are changing they way we use communications, with falling TV viewing, increased internet usage and mobile phone replacing fixed lines.

Major new internet players have emerged from nowhere, while incumbent vendors and service providers have found their world view is crumbling.

Increasing convergence means that these changes will spread and grow.

Application, service, technological, commercial, geographical and social boundaries will blur, and disruption will become the norm.

This exciting new ecosystem creates a hugely challenging environment for all stakeholders in the communications industry.

Hardware and software vendors, telecomms operators, service providers, governments and regulatory bodies all need to establish a robust and well informed understanding of the issues, in order to develop viable strategies and policies.

A forthcoming workshop will build on the thinking of the recently formed CRN Working Group "Innovation in telecomms".

Expert speakers will explore different facets of this complex topic: how regulatory policies can encourage freedom for users, innovative new products and services, and efficient competition.

The workshop will also explore how the telecommunications industry can adapt to this volatile landscape, and continue as a vibrant, competitive and profitable business sector.

This event will help delegates to build a rich and well-founded view of the dynamics of the next-generation of innovation and regulation, and develop strategies to survive and prosper.

Regulation 2.0 will take place on 14th and 15th September 2006, and there will be a drinks reception and dinner at Magdalene College, Cambridge.

The price to attend the workshop, which includes lunch on both days is GBP 275 for industry delegates.

The event is free for CRN members.
