Service Providers discuss the key Challenges & Opportunities IP & Cloud Comms Market goes through momentous change

Cloud Comms SummitIn the last 12 months we have seen momentous changes in the Cloud Comms & IP Voice market, with massive supply chain & service provider consolidation and growth. Service providers are also being challenged on how to differentiate themselves, in an increasingly congested and maturing market. We are seeing competition emerge from new sources such as Microsoft and Twilio and some of the VoIP Specialists grow very strongly while others flounder. Also, we are seeing exciting new service areas such as SDN, CPaaS/API, Analytics, AI and others offer new opportunities to Service Providers. All these changes are making Service Providers often take a long look at their strategy on a number of levels, both product, Go-to-Market and their very role as a Service Provider. With all this change happening, on June 26 th-27 th the Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) and the Cavell Group are bringing the Cloud Comms Summit just outside Washington, in Leesburg, Virginia having been run successfully for over 4 years. A vendor neutral conference focused on the Service Provider community, the Summit brings the industry together in one location to share best practices and network with multiple vendors. This year we are discussing key themes such as the State of the Cloud Comms market, how do Service Providers Differentiate themselves, the Role of SD WAN, Offering International Service, Changing Vendor Landscape (with all key platform owners speaking), Trends in Cloud M&A and many more. The Summit also brings a range of C-Level speakers and industry leaders including Mike Tessler – Cloud Calling & Broadsoft Business Leader at Cisco, Clark Peterson – Chief Evangelist at Vonage, Josh Lesavoy – CIO Nextiva,  Alan Foy - CEO Star2Star & Blueface, Bill Bryant – President of Reinvent, Brian Beutler – CEO, President & Co-founder of Alianza, Chris Carabello – Senior Director Product Marketing at Metaswitch, Patrick Joggerst – CMO & EVP Business Development  Ribbon Communications, Anand Buch - Co-founder & CEO, Netsapiens, Dean Manzoori – VP Global Cloud Comms at Masergy, Armen Martirosyan – Co-founder & CEO BluIP, George Mitsopoulos – COO of Broadvoice, Alan Rihm – CEO of Coredial & Keynotes from our Gold Sponsors Edgewater Networks, Dialogic & 2600Hz. The event will also benefit from three of the market’s leading Analysts with Matt Townend & Dominic Black of Cavell and Blair Pleasant of COMMfusion. Additionally, the CCA have sponsored well-known author and public motivational speaker Nigel Risner to look at broader change issues in his inspirational keynote: “Change is Inevitable, Growth is Optional”. As Service Providers reevaluate their Cloud Comms and IP Voice strategies, this is a unique opportunity to learn from peers, experts and vendors in an amazing setting. Most providers have now accepted the requirement for their strategies to change and this event will provide a great kick start for that activity moving forward.
