FEDERAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, ETHZ, CONFERENCE: 4. INVITATION
FIRST TUESDAY ZURICH: Our panel, hosted by Markus Gisler, Editor-in-Chief of CASH, will cover the most important issues for the future of broadband: Can the promise of broadband be realized? What will be the winning business model – push or pull? What is the future of broadband usage and how will that impact our daily lives at home and in the office? Will Switzerland meet the challenge to wire up – as Sweden announces a government led initiative to "guarantee broadband internet access for all Swedes in two years"? Peter Rudin, Founder and CEO of UPAQ, has been a pioneer in multimedia and broadband for many years (Peter founded MAC and "the blue window", the leading Swiss ISP). He brings a great combination of the pragmatic and visionary when speaking about the impact of broadband and the challenges of the backbone. Bruno Aebi, Sales Director Switzerland, joins us from The Fantastic Corporation. Fantastic is one of the great Swiss success stories, with a very successful IPO on the Neuer Markt in Germany last year, and strong potential in developing the leading standard in broadband communication. Their client list reads like a "Who's Who" of the world's telecom and media companies. Bruno will bring the view from the battlefield of Europe and broadband penetration. Peter Fischer
is responsible for broadband licenses in Bern, as the Deputy Director
and Head of Telecommunication of the Bakom (Bundesamt für Kommunikation).
The Government perspective of the We are delighted that Professor Beat Schmid, University of St. Gallen, Head of New Media Institute will be completing our panel.
