Whether you are a telecom agent, IT VAR or telecom dealer, word on the street is your No. 1 new opportunity and the No. 1 challenge is to embrace cloud service-delivery models. This track offers tools for tackling both - from building a cloud practice to building an ROI model.

Boost and diversify your revenue stream by adding professional and managed services. This track will show you a few options from managing network performance to mobile devices.
