Bhaoo at CME 2015
Asian Carrier Conference 2015
Asian Carriers Conference is one of the largest telecom wholesale conferences held annually in Cebu Philippines. Bhaoo is a regular attendee of the ACC since its inception. With more than 300 organizations from across the globe and around 1500 delegates the ACC is a must attend event for Wholesale VOIP providers as well as for companies in other product segments such as Data and SMS.
The ACC is held every year in the tropical island of Cebu at the magnificent Shang-Rila a perfect setting for business and pleasure alike. The casual setting of the conference on the island makes the event much more relaxing for the delegates than any other annual event.
Saad Saleem, working in carrier relations for Bhaoo attended the event for the first time and had this to say
‘ACC in Cebu was one of the best conferences I have attended for a really long time. The feel of the event was very laid back. This allowed delegates like us to talk business in a much more relaxed atmosphere and enjoy the ambiance. Shang-Rila is a magnificent location. I can’t wait to come back next year’
Along with meetings among delegates the ACC arranges numerous workshops and training events at the conference. Bhaoo delegates attended some of these events :
The future of communication, Divya Mankakar, Head of Innovation at BICS
The workshop scheduled on the 2nd day of the conference was attended by a large amount of delegates. The talk given by Divya was thought provoking and very inspiring. In this ever changing telecommunication industry, the new threats and opportunities for telecom operators as well as the role of social media was the main highlight of the event.
The ACC has many licensed sponsors. They mainly consisted of call termination license holders in their specific countries such as PLDT who was the main sponsor from the Phillipines
Sohaib Hameed, Manager Carrier Relations at Bhaoo had this to say about the ACC
“It was indeed a great experience attending ACC Asia’s biggest Wholesale Carrier conference. Mobile operators, Tier 1 carriers and big aggregators from all the continents were part of this year’s ACC made it a highly productive, informative and lucrative event. All the attendees were provided with great facilities throughout whereas the event was extremely well managed.”
Social Events at the ACC
Apart from the business nature of the event the organizers had arranged different social events for the delegates. Before the conference kick started, a golf tournament was arranged for the delegates.
Evening Social events and dinners with different themes were organized on the first 3 days of the conference. One of these included the Back to 80s music theme dinner where Philippine’s top dance group performed and was widely praised by the audience.
On the last day a trip to the Olango Island was also arranged for the delegates to end the on a high.
Business Networking
While most delegates have scheduled meetings with their clients and partners beforehand the ACC is a great opportunity to communicate with organization which you have never corresponded with before to discuss business. Voice termination industry, where a call initiated as a VoIP call is terminated using PSTN, is growing tremendously in the last few years and many of the delegates made contacts with potential clients from across the world which will prove beneficial for them in the near future.
