THE 2021 CANADIAN ISP SUMMIT, which this year is being organized as a virtual event jointly by the Competitive Network Operators of Canada (CNOC) and the Canadian Communication Systems Alliance (CCSA), will take place from September 28 to 29.
This is the first time ever the event will be presented jointly by CNOC the CCSA and will more than doubles the event’s size.
In an email alert today, organizers announced the September dates for the virtual summit, saying sponsorship packages and pricing information will be released soon. The call for sponsorships for this year’s event is now open.
“The joint partnership between CNOC and the CCSA, whose members also provide cable and IPTV services, will make this virtual event bigger than ever before, more than doubling in size from previous years in registered attendees and available sponsorship opportunities to bring even more value to the event,” reads the event description on the Canadian ISP Summit website.
The virtual conferencing platform for the event will feature product showcases, breakout rooms, compelling content and keynote speakers, combined with a new dual content track open to all attendees.
“We’re delighted to be partnering with CNOC on the 2021 Canadian ISP Summit,” said Jay Thomson, CCSA CEO, in the press release announcing the event. “We welcome the opportunity to collaborate with them and provide insights that will allow the independent communications provider sector to grow. By way of a virtually hosted event, it makes more sense than ever to expand the event’s scale thereby adding more value for all who will be a part of it.”
“As the ISP industry landscape continues to evolve and brave challenges, building on the success of past ISP Summits for our members is more important than it has ever been,” added Matt Stein, CNOC chairman. “And now together with the CCSA, we’re positioned to create an event where our stakeholders will learn, challenge and share ideas that will lead the industry into the future.”
