Dear T.V,

                              [Untitled-1_06.jpg]

 


UCLA's Wireless Internet for Mobile Enterprise Consortium (WINMEC) in the
Henry Samueli School of Engineering is pleased to welcome you to the
upcoming Mobile Carrier Forum  on March 8, 2005 -- the theme for this
forum is "Convergence".  The Annual UCLA-WINMEC Mobile Carrier Forum will
allow carriers and select suppliers to come together to discuss business
and technology issues that are changing the landscape for the
Mobile/Wireless Carriers.  The reduction of voice ARPU, rapid
proliferation of Voice over I.P. or VoIP, and global competition is
rapidly changing the way in which carriers function.  New business models
such as  convergence of voice and data infrastructure or the packaging of
wireless and wireline services, etc., are being offered.  On the
technology front, Wi-Max and Wi-Fi offer alternatives for mobile/wireless
for data and voice. The rapid pace of change is altering the competitive
landscape and creating disruptions in this industry.  Convergence between
different technologies could squeeze out some services, while convergence
would also create a new genre of services.  Mobile carriers are invited
to participate and discuss their existing challenges and emerging
opportunities that convergence generates.  Suppliers are invited to
present their viewpoint and have an interactive dialog with the carriers
on how they could assist the carriers through the current rapidly
changing times.
