Virtual Seminar Discription:

The practice oriented virtual seminar will encompass information on the rollout of a pan-regional WiMAX network in Central Europe, the concept standing behind it and experience gained during the last year of operations.

Central Europe is an increasingly interesting region, with strong economies, saturating mobile markets, low broadband penetration but with visible uptake due to service offerings from incumbent operators and first results of the market liberalization conducted on base of LLU or bitstream access.

What is the opportunity for WiMAX ? Will broadband wireless access constitute an offering acceptable for customers in this region?

Is it realistic to provide a service affordable on price and competitive compared to others ? What is the outlook for the future ?

In this session you will be able to gain understanding on the above mentioned aspects as well as hear practical tips from a company having its proof of concept already in place.

• Insight into operations of Europe's first pan-regional WiMAX carrier
• Specific of the Central and East European telecoms market
• Network rollout concept and value of standarized technologies
• Market strategy combining strengths with the most promising opportunities
• Areas and visions for future growth
• Practical description of a success story
• Questions and answers to current WiMAX related issues
