Description

FULL DETAILS     MATCHMAKER PARTICIPANTS LIST    |   AGENDA   |   FEES & OPTIONS

Telecom Council's 2025 annual meeting, Telecom Talks, draws a select group of telcos, telecom vendors, and communications startups and investors from around the world to Silicon Valley to discover the technologies impacting the telecom industry, the networks, and subscribers.  

Our focused, engaging format is unlike any conference or tradeshow. It is an interactive, friendly setting that connects attendees in meaningful business conversations around new communications technologies. While Telecom Council members, who trial, deploy, and invest in new technologies across the entire communications landscape, meet monthly in private, this meeting invites the larger telecom innovation ecosystem to join in.
