The official press release just went out in Business Wire (America) and Real Wire (Europe). I'd like to highlight a few parts below:
Announcing its role, Sten Tamviki, Skype's Chief Evangelist & GM for Estonia, said: "As headline sponsor of this month's Emerging Communications conference, Skype is pleased to support the independent and innovative community that eComm represents. Skype disrupted a traditional industry to enable the world's conversations and is proud to be part of a thriving community of innovators."
Lee S. Dryburgh, organizer and co-chair of eComm, added: "Back in 2003, Skype sent shock waves through the telecommunications industry by heralding a new software-only, edge-centric approach. Six years later, Skype is still launching innovations that will vastly increase the value of its platform and further disrupt the industry. I'm totally thrilled that Skype recognizes the value of the communications innovation community by taking the eComm headline sponsorship position...Again, we're so very pleased to see the most disruptive communications technology companies take a leadership role in bringing eComm to Europe for the first time"
An amazing three-days are ahead. Each show is very different and I very much look forward to the unique flavour of this one.
I'd like to take this opportunity to remind people to attend as the event is less than two weeks away and the late pricing will kick in very soon.
Lee S Dryburgh (Founder)
