Be Your Own Hero
This month, we offer a sneak peek into ISE EXPO 2020’s Virtual Experience. Without leaving your office (or home office, or home-you-wish-was-NOT-your-office), we invite you to efficiently LINK to the most relevant telecom/ICT: Learning, Inspiration, Networking and Knowledge.
What does that mean? A LOT! Our new virtual platform allows you to:
• See, hear, and chat, with Andrew Dugan, CTO of Lumen
• Problem-solve with our Tech Talk speakers
• Pick the brains of our COVID-19 Network Impact panelists from Verizon, BBT and Consolidated Communications
• Connect with industry experts who will teach you everything they know about the hottest telecom/ICT topics
But, wait! There’s more. (Yes, we’re intentionally sounding like an infomercial. This is a shameless plug for an event that is all about YOUR career trajectory. No expiring-soon, too-good-to-be-true, deals allowed.)
Because ISE is all about education AND product solutions, our interactive exhibit floor brings together trusted business partners to help your company thrive, not just survive. You can see the latest products, chat in real time with SMEs to find solutions to your network pain points, and check out videos, brochures, and demos, that bring the products you need to life.
Be sure to visit the lounge and Tech Zone. It’s a unique way to experience video demonstrations showcasing products and services to make your professional life easier. In the lounge, you can also chat with fellow attendees and connect with industry peers who share similar goals and objectives.
And who doesn’t like to win games that help you do your job better? By joining ISE’s exclusive scavenger hunt, you’ll earn points for watching product demos, attending educational sessions, and taking in all the exhibit floor has to offer. More points = more opportunities to win cool prizes from our Premier sponsors.
By embracing this virtual way to stay on top of your game, you’ll discover the latest product solutions and education WHILE enjoying a new way to explore, learn, and connect.
As the old saying goes: You only get what you invest. So, dive in now and discover how ISE EXPO 2020 is YOUR invaluable link to Learning, Inspiration, Networking, and Knowledge.
