Telecom Analytics World 2014 is focused exclusively on the emerging analytics platforms, tools and applications demanded by communications service providers (CSP).

This event is designed to:
- Showcase platforms, applications and tools beyond data warehousing

- Explore predictive analytics tools to predict the conversion of bookings to billings
"A paradigm shift is occurring in the business of network operators and communications service providers as well as in the platforms, tools and solutions that communications service providers use to manage and monetize data. The challenge is how to turn the data into useful and actionable information," said Timothy Downs, Conference Director.
