Mobile World Congress is just around the corner, and if you’re lucky enough to find yourself in Barcelona February 24-27, be sure to attend the WBA (Wireless Broadband Alliance) Carrier Wi-Fi Summit at the Fira Gran Via, Hall 8, to hear iPass CEO Evan Kaplan deliver the keynote address, “Wi-Fi Trends and User Experience—a View into the Future.” Learn how Communications Service Providers (CSPs) around the world are strengthening their product offers and market position with compelling Wi-Fi roaming solutions from iPass.
The Carrier Wi-Fi Summit brings together the key players in the wireless industry—policy makers, mobile operators, and vendors for discussion on how to move the Wi-Fi industry forward. Key topics include:
- The global role of Wi-Fi in ICT
- Public Wi-Fi trends for 2015
- Delivering a Better Customer Experience on Wi-Fi
- The Evolution of Wi-Fi Networks and Business Models
We’ll also take a look into the future of Wi-Fi as we discuss the Connected Lifestyle and Vision for 2020.
iPass is also pleased to sponsor RoamFest, taking place within the Carrier Wi-Fi Summit. RoamFest is a unique opportunity for Wi-Fi network operators, mobile service providers, and Wi-Fi Exchange Operators to meet and discuss fast-tracking roaming agreements. It’s an opportunity to save time, effort, and resources by negotiation and signing agreements with multiple operators from around the world, all in one place, and to discover the latest news and developments in Wi-Fi roaming and the WBA Interoperability Compliancy Program.
If you already have a ticket to Mobile World Congress, the entrance fee to the Carrier Wi-Fi Summit is an additional 200 €. RoamFest is a free event taking place within the Carrier Wi-Fi Summit. If you don’t have Mobile World Congress tickets yet, you can purchase a pass to both events for 890 €, or at discounted rates if you’re a member of the Wireless Broadband Alliance or a partner member of the WBA.
