Submarine Cable - Beyond the Bandwidth Bubble

As China and India continue to lead the Asia Pacific region in economic growth and bandwidth consumption, is the submarine cable industry in Asia Pacific sailing into a new era of unprecedented growth?  Have macroeconomic trends triggered a new bandwidth demand cycle -- or is current phase of optimism another episode of market hype?  What has the industry learned from the past to better prepare itself for the very near future?  What impact do advanced technologies have on evolving trends?  Join an executive discussion probing how a new era of strategic realignment is emerging in the Pacific submarine cable industry.
