PTC Webinar Series: Frictionless Business™ – Converged Connectivity and Future Business Models

The PTC Webinar Series: Frictionless Business™ continued with “Converged Connectivity and Future Business Models,” which examined the role of technology and telecom at the center of convergence for all sectors.

Moderator Eric Handa, co-founder and CEO of APTelecom, and panelists from a variety of telecom industries shared their perspectives:

• Bob Brumley, Chief Executive Officer, Laser Light Communications
• Janet Hernandez, President, Telecommunications Management Group
• Claire Kwok, Director, APAC, Data Center Solutions, CBRE
• George Tronsrue, Chief Executive Officer, Quintillion Networks
• Darren Yong, Asia Pacific Head of Telecom, Media, and Technology, KPMG Asia Pacific

The panel presented new and innovative concepts that are becoming a reality as the convergence of technology coupled with industries experiencing more overlap emerges, such as a Southeast Asian telecom operator serving the community as a de facto insurance provider or payment service provider.

The webinar was compelling, informative, and offered global perspectives and insights on a variety of topics. With the COVID-19 pandemic accelerating digital uptake in various areas of the world, the discussion was very timely as many aspects that are often overlooked in terms of go-to-market, regulatory challenges, capital restraints, education about disruptive technology, and applications to industries ripe for change and efficiency were covered. Wherever in the world you are viewing this from, we hope you enjoy this webinar. We welcome any thoughts and comments as PTC aims to continue this outstanding webinar series promoting dialogue exchange and cooperation.
