Digital Leadership Summit: Exploring telco opportunities with low code in a digital landscape

Tuesday, May 18, 2021 3:00pm to 4:30pm

Virtual

Becoming a digital player and delivering new services and experiences quickly to market can present challenges, and many strategies have come and gone in the attempt to instill agility into telecom operations. Low-code development can provide CSPs with the independence and control necessary to deliver their own innovations and adapt to market changes quickly.

In this Digital Leadership Summit, we will explore the advantages of using low code to provide the non-technology units within your organization, with the capability to safely build solutions, without reliance on long development lead times. This will enable you to provide a better experience to your customers and to enable CSPs to gain significant market growth in a competitive, digital market.

If you are interested in attending this invite-only event, please contact Iwona Hampson.
