[isoc-ny] WEBCAST TODAY: CITI State of Telecom 2017 – The Internet’s Next Bottlenecks? Major Platforms, Video Clouds, and the Middle Mile

[ISOC-NY announcements]

This just kicking off. As mentioned before, CITI's move online is very much
caused by rebuilding on campus leading to a lack of space, albeit welcome.
This year's SoT is as topical as ever, if somewhat briefer than we are
accustomed.

Today *Friday November 17th 2017 *the *Columbia Institute for
Tele-Information <http://www.citicolumbia.org/> *presents its annual *State
of Telecom* conference. This year's event, held online, has the theme *The
Internet's Next Bottlenecks? Major Platforms, Video Clouds, and the Middle
Mile <https://citistateoftelecom2017.eventbrite.com/>*. In the past,
improvements in business entry and regulatory policy have lowered a number
of market barriers in the telecom and TV industries, enabling competition
and access. As this shift has occurred, what bottlenecks are left or have
emerged in the new digital environment? This online half day conference
will explore the potential or actual disruption by the new content and
distribution platforms and their impact on media and technology markets. It
will also analyze the various public policy options that have been
advocated. The focus will be on real issues that exist and what responses
might be. Speakers include representatives of *AT&T*, *Verizon*, *Facebook*,
and the *FCC*. The event will be webcast live via the *Internet Society
livestream channel* <https://new.livestream.com/internetsociety/citisot2016>
.
