At GNE 2024, the seniority, expertise and influence of the attendees was impressively high, especially in terms of senior CSP management. This is an event where real decisions are made, real influencers are everywhere, and real answers can be found.
Participating in the MEF NaaS event is a yearly highlight, offering a unique opportunity to engage with industry executives dedicated to advancing network services. I take great pride in returning each year to share ideas on the future of networking.
The consistency of experience, experience of the organizers, the quality of the participating community—it’s fantastic.
