Dr Peter Charissé, Managing Director of ANGA COM: “We have reached the final straight with our new online congress. The demand of our partner companies was so huge that the conference programme has become even more extensive and international than it has been in recent years at the regular show. I would especially like to thank our partners from the UK and the USA, SCTE - The Society for Broadband Professionals, CableLabs and The Cable Center, for their great support. Having been unable to meet in person for so long, it is especially important for us to stay digitally connected with our friends abroad. We have to take care that the actual circumstances do not create new borders in our wonderfully multilateral industry. With our extended  international conference agenda, we want to make a contribution to reach this goal.”

Highlights of the strategy programme will be five summit events with industry leaders such as Canal+, Deutsche Glasfaser, Deutsche Telekom, Discovery, M-net, NetCologne, ProSieben, RTL, Tele Columbus, Virgin Media and Vodafone. These include the "Fiber Summit – Cooperations and Open Access vs. Overbuilding?", the "Broadband Summit – FTTH only or Technology Mix with FTTB, Cable and 5G?", the “CEO Talk“, the "Media Summit – How to win the Streaming Battle?" and the "International Content Summit – Strategies to win the OTT Competition."
