GDS International's 2012 Next Generation Telecoms Summit To Be Held In Hong Kong

22 Dec 2011

Spencer Green, chairman of global business-to-business events company GDS International, has confirmed Hong Kong as the location for next year's hi-tech, high-level gathering of telecoms executives.

The Next Generation Telecoms Summit series has been bringing together the world's leading telecom innovators since 2004. They gather to network, discuss solutions and share ideas on the deployment of mobile, broadband and fixed services within a rapidly converging market.

The 2012 NGT Summit for Asia Pacific will take place in the stunning 5-star Hong Kong Marriott from the 13th to the 15th of March, says Spencer Green, chairman of global business-to-business events company and NGT organizer, GDS International.

 "We could not be more excited," says Spencer. "The feedback from our last NGT was incredible. A number of delegates called me personally to congratulate the team on a job well done - and I know they have excelled even their high standards this time around."

Ashwin Jaiswal, Head of IT for Indian telecoms colossus Reliance Communications, called the NGT APAC Summit "an event of outstanding quality." It was, he continued, much needed as it brought senior executives from "all of the [region's] operators together to talk. To share. To learn."

Attendees in March include Azwan Khan, Group CSO, for 25,000-employee strong Asian telecoms leader Axiata Group; Wilma Cruz, Group CIO for Indonesia's mobile giant, Indosat; and Herfini Haryono, CIO / CTO, for the country's largest network operator, Telkomsel. Not to mention Aircel, Bharti Airtel, Reliance Communications, Sun Cellular, Telekom Malaysia.

"This is one of our flagship summits," says Spencer. "And in 2012, we're raising that flag higher than ever."
