Africa Telecom Forum (http://www.i-conferences.org/atf) is the premier telecom event in North West and Central Africa. This event will mainly focus on regulation challenges and issues. On the agenda, there are three days of debates to highlight the impact of the different regulatory approaches on the development of telecom, technological innovations, infrastructures sharing, universal service, and regional Interconnection. The conference workshops and training session will focus on practical issues, such as mobile payment and convergence. Join more than 250 industry professionals, telecom operators, regulation authorities, and equipment suppliers from over 20 countries in North, West, and Central Africa.
As speaker, Sonia will discuss the pros and cons of the emergence of regional champions in Africa. The strategy of those operators is often dictated by the needs to generate economies of scale and to secure a good return on investment.
