Pyramid Research & Network Eventos to Expand Reach of Rio Wireless International to Service Providers Across Latin America

SAO PAULO, Sept. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Pyramid Research (www.pyramidresearch.com), a telecom research division of the Light Reading Communications Network focused on emerging markets, and Network Eventos (www.networkeventos.com.br), the producer of Rio Wireless International, have announced a partnership to expand the event's reach beyond Brazil's borders by providing an ideal platform for service providers seeking strategic advice to develop their businesses in Latin America. Rio Wireless International Conference 2012 will take place on May 21 & 22, 2012 in the Intercontinental Hotel – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Today, Rio Wireless International is one of the leading events in the Brazil telecom market, covering the fourth generation of mobile infrastructure and applications. Next year, Pyramid's team of Latin America analysts will bring their extensive knowledge on the region's broadband and regulatory trends to present research-driven content that will highlight issues that concern service providers not only in Brazil but across Latin America as a whole.

Additionally, with the aid of Heavy Reading, Light Reading Communications Network's telecom technology research unit, Pyramid will help to recruit speakers and develop the service provider audience from outside Brazil while Network Eventos will continue its successful event operations and speaker-recruitment activity within the country.

"The new Rio Wireless International Conference is designed to capture the amazing opportunity and growth in the Latin American telecom market," said Joseph Braue, Executive Vice President/Group Director of Light Reading. "New broadband plans are emerging in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Colombia as countries across the region look to break down regulatory barriers and increase spectrum to continue to drive their 3G/4G mobile services, which Pyramid expects to grow at a 45 percent rate over the next four years. By combining Network Eventos's expertise in producing successful Brazilian telecom events with our Pyramid and Heavy Reading telecom expertise, we can provide a conference of tremendous substance for regional telecom executives and regulators."

"For more than a decade, Rio Wireless has been Brazil's leading event, with over 400 attendees, representing Brazil's top operator, government agencies, and enterprise costumers, Rio Wireless has emerged as a must-attend conference for the Brazilian market," said Carlos Calazans, President of Network Eventos, Founder & Chairman of Rio Wireless, and Strategy Consultant of NW Consultoria. "In 2012 we start a partnership with Pyramid Research, that lends its Latin American regional expertise to expand the conference's reach beyond Brazil's borders."
