With the theme "Navigating the Geopolitical and Economic Crossfire," this intimate 75-person summit is designed for C-level executives and decision-makers. Marion emphasized the event's relevance to both European and North American providers: "There are no walls in communications," he said, noting how cross-border policy changes, tariffs, and credit issues are affecting providers globally.
