The Convergance Summit @ Sandown Park

Recently attended the Convergence Summit at the famous Sandown Park in Esher which proved to be very interesting indeed. In attendance was most of the great and good of the telecoms world and Microsoft even made an appearance via a seminar hosted by their European Director of Convergance. By far the most talked about subject was of course Hosted IP telephony. Everyone was screaming on about getting with it or risk falling behind in the channel stakes. There were of course a few nay sayers but these tended to be the elder statesmens and there were also a few neutral commentators who cleverly disguised any alliance (Tony Blair could learn a few more lessons here!. Overall, a refreshing combination of companies from across the UK all excitingly embracing the plethora of new technologies flooding telecoms land. To the chap that organised it - Miles Blossom - well done mate. Look forward to next year :-)
