Learn how to incorporate these features to meet your buyers' current and future technology needs and position your company as a leader in the field.

Brett Sappington, Senior Research Analyst, Parks Associates, will be moderated the panel "New Revenue Options - Monetizing the Digital Home" on Wednesday, November 10th at 2:35 PM in the Veronese Room 2402-2403.

U.S. consumers are embracing technology within their networked homes that will enable not just a sharing of video content among devices but also new services such as energy management, home security, telemedicine and more. While the broadband Internet connections play a crucial role in many of these new capabilities, it isn’t always clear how service providers move beyond the fat pipe to a more strategic - -and lucrative – role. This panel will discuss options for service providers to develop new services and find new revenues in the digital home, while also enabling consumers to more rapidly adopt new technologies that offer considerable benefits.

TelcoTV is the only major North American event designed to help telecom service providers explore all their options while remaining focused on the bottom line.
