the new challenges and opportunities for service providers in today’s
hyper-competitive worldwide market. Research from Parks Associates
indicates service providers will supply over 70 million households
worldwide with residential gateways by 2012.
“Service providers have to differentiate to stay
competitive,” said Kurt Scherf,
vice president, principal analyst, Parks Associates. “That means home
networking, residential gateways, support and mobile services, IPTV, and
more. With our excellent lineup of executive speakers and sponsors,
CONNECTIONS™ Europe Summit will examine and showcase many of the options
for providers as the service landscape gets more crowded and
competitive.”
Enure Networks, Motorola, the Multimedia over Coax
Alliance (MoCA™), and support.com are
Advisory Sponsors for the 2008
CONNECTIONS™ Europe Summit Series. The Home Gateway Initiative (HGI)
is a Platinum Supporting Organization, and CE-Business,

TV Services in Europe: Update and Outlook, a free white paper
