2017 TMT

Blurred Lines: The Age of Convergence

September 28, 2017
4:00pm - 8:00pm

When it comes to today's TMT landscape, it's all about convergence. Forget technology, media, telecom silos. These days, the line where one sector ends and the other begins is blurred and more interdependent than ever. For example, media and telecom are more tech savvy than ever, and new media is borrowing pages from old media’s playbook. The upshot? New companies, new business models and new deal making opportunities. This year's conference examines convergence and its opportunities through the eyes of operators, investors and deal makers.
