Doreen Trant, Head of Global Services Sales, North America, Nokia Siemens Networks Added to keynote lineup

In today's environment, Communications Service Providers (CSPs) are compelled to respond to customer needs in Internet-time. Looking for every advantage, competitive operators are applying outsourcing to create cost advantages, best practices to create world-class efficiencies, and proven operational processes to measurably improve their customers' experience. Citing case studies that illustrate how Managed Services enable CSPs to evolve to meet the demands of a changing marketplace, Nokia Siemens Network's Doreen Trant will discuss how, in a sea of vendors, operators can select one trusted partner that can reduce risk while providing a one-stop shop for operational transformation.
