Vice Chairs Networks of the Future
Massimiliano Salsi, Google & Georg Mohs, SubCom
When thinking about “networks of the future” the authors should focus on content that presents a clear demarcation with the present. The scope is broad, from business models to technologies, but the common denominator is change. The goal is to create a feeling of flash-forward during the sessions, so that all the participants can experience the submarine cable business of the future and discuss the challenges and opportunities together.
Among the topics discussed we want to cover
“SubOptic is a great place to review and discuss what we have achieved together in the industry in the last three years. But SubOptic is even more about looking ahead and sharing ideas of what is to come in the next three years and beyond. We are very excited about getting involved and helping to organize the sessions for Networks of the Future and look forward to all your great thoughts and submissions to Networks of the Future!”
