Forum draws thousands to Paris
The IEC Broadband World Forum Europe closed with attendance of nearly 6500 telecomms professionals from 120 countries
The show, at which Telecom Italia is already confirmed as the host sponsor, will major on converged networks, customer content-based applications and mobile and fixed IP-based technologies in response to growing interest in these sectors.
Last week's London event, which had education programming and exhibits on converged networks, IMS and the latest broadband services available to telecomms service providers, drew more than 3000 ICT professionals to attend.
IEC President, John Janowiak commented: 'The IEC prides itself in bringing the most sought after and desired information in the ICT (information and communication technology) industry'.

'We look forward to continuing and expanding the delivery of this valuable content with the C5 World Forum'.
Exemplifying the industry demand for the leading-edge content, more than 80% of the expanded exhibit space at next year's C5 World Forum presold before last week's conference.
The event received a strong representation from industry-leading companies such as BT (official host sponsor), Ericsson, Huawei, Siemens, Fujitsu, Alcatel, Cisco System, ECI, Lucent, ADVA, Agere Systems, Cirpack, Intel, Juniper Networks, Keymile, Nokia, Tellabs, Operax, Redback Networks, IBM and ZTE Corporation that exhibited and sponsored the show.
The IEC also premiered the IMS Global ComForum last week at the 21st Century Communications World Forum, revealing the latest IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) research and developments by leading industry information experts.
As service providers compete in an increasingly competitive environment, forcing them to migrate from a voice world to a multimedia applications space including voice, video, data, and wireless (quadruple play), educational events such as the 21st Century Communications World Forum, the C5 World Forum, Broadband World Forum Europe, Broadband World Forum Asia, and Broadband World Forum Americas have proven to be of paramount importance to communications professionals.
The IEC also awarded speakers BT Group Chief Technology Officer, Mick Reeve, and Mitel Chairman, Sir Terry Matthews with its Fellow Award last week during the show, which recognises those who have made outstanding contributions to the information industry.
