Defining Australia’s Broadband Future

Broadband World Australia 2008 is an event dedicated to examining the role of advanced broadband networks in enabling next-gen services and applications targeted at business and the residential consumer.

For delegates

The importance of the internet in Australian life, both domestic and corporate, underscores the need for low-cost, high speed broadband. As the Government recognizes this and promises $4.7b towards an estimated total investment of $12b to build and operate Australia’s next generation broadband network, opportunities will open up like never before for the ICT sector to capitalize.

By November, the race to win the tender for the National Broadband Network will be well and truly on. At Broadband World Australia 2008 delegates will be provided with unrivalled opportunities to debate the key issues shaping the industry and be given unique insight into the latest developments surrounding the largest broadband infrastructure project in Australia’s history.

The event will be the ideal platform from which to leverage your business by allowing you direct access to the people you want to meet. Put simply, Broadband World Australia 2008 is the one-stop-shop for all players in the sector to network, learn, debate and do business. From fixed and mobile operators, ISPs, government, content providers and media to network vendors, application developers, device manufacturers, consultants, investors and legal firms, the programme is jam packed and full of value and opportunity for all.

Speakers

Broadband World Australia is an event dedicated to examining the role of advanced broadband networks in enabling next-gen services and applications targeted at business and the residential consumer. It will explore a wide variety of complex, critical broadband technologies spanning both wireline and wireless networks in three core areas: broadband access, broadband home, and broadband control.

Here’s what some of the speakers are saying about the event:

“This conference comes at a critical time in the development of a national broadband network with the focus shifting more upon what changes it will bring rather than if we will have one. What can realistically be expected? What are the risks from unexpected impacts?”
Kerry Barwise, Director, Centre for International Economics

"There's no more important debate in Australian telecommunications than the future of broadband in this country. I see Broadband World 2008 as an ideal platform for the industry to air the issues that face us in 2008 and beyond."
Shara Evans, CEO, Market Clarity
