Intercai Customer Event 2009: Critical infrastructure - a balancing act between regulation and liberalisation

Protecting critical infrastructure does not come for free, liberalisation is just one price factor among many, and regulation does not stop at national borders.

Over 100 customers followed our invitation to listen to three interesting speeches dealing with critical infrastructure in terms of protection as well as risks and opportunities.

Second Intercai Energy Roundtable: Migration to FTTH

The main topic of the second roundtable held on April 22, 2009, was the migration of existing HFC networks to future broadband networks. Will evolution or revolution lead to the desired success? It was also shown that the supposed side aspect of the positioning of the HFC network operators is at least as interesting as possible extension scenarios. Thus, utility companies are thinking about present and future business models as well as possible co-operation scenarios in the FTTH area. Please read more in our summary (download PDF, in German).
