It was a pleasure to join several of my peers from the telecom world yesterday for a panel discussion about Industry OT Collaboration at the 23rd annual The Canadian Telecom Summit in Toronto. Robin Kaushik and Jason Elliott joined me in an insightful conversation on how technology is making a tangible impact on public safety, transportation, healthcare, and other major Canadian industries, with exceptional moderation from Jason Lee. I appreciated sharing my perspective, not only as the leader of the TELUS 5G and Industry Solutions team, but also as a longstanding member of the Canadian telecom community. Our number one priority is serving our customers, and taking on the part of a trusted advisor to help evaluate solutions for their needs and determine their current and future ROI for the benefit of themselves, their families and businesses, and their communities. #canadiantelecomsummit #telecom #technology #iot #TELUS

Today it was my privilege to participate in the 2024 The Canadian Telecom Summit in Toronto and share insights on the Canadian Telecom market. Then I moderated the PwC Fireside Chat, an exceptional forum, where I had the honor of being joined by esteemed colleagues Meaghan Kappel and Sachin Jayapalan who discussed Navigating the New Telecom Landscape: M&A Strategies for Growth - themes including: *The strategic dilemma around buy vs build vs partner. There has been a lot of conversation around this recently, especially as telecoms enhance their offerings through ecosystem builds and partnerships. Meaghan shared her perspectives on how operators might think of this through a value creation lens. *Do we need to rethink the utility of a vertically integrated carrier model, with a core focus on examining, optimizing and potentially separating the distinct business layers? Sachin shared his thoughts on this and how telecoms can unlock the “conglomerate discount” investors may apply to their valuation. This event provided a platform for us to share insights and underscore our contributions to the telecom sector. We look forward to tomorrow and continuing the discussion during the third and final day of this year’s summit. #PwCCanada #CTS2024 Bali Minhas, Caroline Banville, Chris Mar, Darren Henderson, Florian Gröne, Nick Ethier, CPA, CA, Oliver Koderman, Anne Tauber, CPA, CA, Jeanette Calandra, Russell Taylor, Mark Dennon, Wilson WY Chow, Werner Ballhaus, Domenic Marino, Karim Sadroudine, Saeid Kazemi MBA, PMP
