CONNECTIONS™ pre-show events address trends, solutions, and opportunities in digital content and device management

CONNECTIONS™ announced two pre-show events, taking place June 24, 2008, bringing expert analysis on business strategies and consumer and industry trends in digital living as well as the opportunities and challenges of device management in the digital home.

Business Cases in Digital Living, a strategic workshop from Parks Associates, and Device Management Summit: Low Cost Device Deployment & User Support, from TM Forum, will be held in conjunction with CONNECTIONS™: The Digital Living Conference and Showcase.

According to Parks Associates, almost 33 million U.S. households will have broadband services 10 Mbps or higher by 2012. These connections create opportunities for multiple industries, a key topic for Business Cases in Digital Living. At this seminar, Parks Associates analysts provide strategic recommendations regarding digital home services and consumer purchase decisions. The seminar also features a special session with executives from Icron Technologies, SyncTV, AwoX, PacketVideo, and Allegro.

Device Management Summit, hosted by TM Forum, covers the entire device-management value chain, including manufacturers, integrators, consultants, executives, and service, technology, and application providers. The agenda features discussion on optimizing end-to-end device management and the latest efforts to solve device-based management issues.

This summit features speakers from TM Forum, Device Management Forum, Coxhead Consulting, Cisco Systems, Peak8 Solutions, DSL Forum, Home Gateway Initiative, OSGi Alliance, and Telcordia.
