Social Media Meets Telecommunications

This Tuesday, I am moderating a panel for the Atlanta Telecom Professionals that explores social media’s impact on telecommunications. I will be joined by:

  • Jay Curthrell, CTO, Digitel Corporation
  • Hunter Montgomery, senior manager of marketing communications platforms, Verizon Business
  • Emily Soelberg, director of premium content, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets

We will discuss such issues as the cost of implementation as well as network capacity, marketing, product development and customer support. At one level, we are interested in how telecom companies are using social media to deliver better service and more products. At another level, we will explore how telecom companies are addressing the greater demand for video services and other forms of user generated content.

The event will begins at 5:30 PM at Crowne Plaza Ravinia here in Atlanta. I will follow up with another posting later in the week.

Let me get back to you.
