About the summit

Join us at the IMS/ NGN Forum Plugfest 5 for "From Innovation to Interop," a different kind of event designed to let fresh minds who are using next-generation networks and services in new ways speak freely with communications industry executives about their experiences and expectations.

An invitation-only event for service providers, this is a one-day working session on closing the gap between new-generation consumer needs and delivery of profitable service offerings. At this session, you will hear from consumers on campus about how they are using communications today and what their expectations for services will be in the future.

This new Summit event will bring together executives, engineers, and end users from the demand, supply, and execution sides of IMS/NGN services, all focused on innovation and new service revenue. An entire ecosystem of IMS/NGN will be presented to you in a vendor-neutral real-world lab where the technology gets real.

Also, come and visit us at NXTComm 2008, where the IMS/NGN Forum will present Plugfest results on Wednesday, June 18 between 10 and 12 p.m. For more information see www.nxtcommshow.com
