ICT2020About ICT2020
Debuting in March 2009, TIA's ICT2020 opened to an initial audience of more than 50,000 professionals in the information and communications technology industry at a time when companies urgently need to understand the future of our industry in a struggling global economy. While most e-newsletters focus on the current news, TIA's ICT2020 features in each bimonthly issue a forward look from a C-level industry leader. The first issue featured CTO of AT&T, John Donovan, with a follow-up from President and CEO of Tellabs, Rob Pullen, in the next issue. Forecasts are drawn from TIA's 2009 ICT Market Review & Forecast, along with resources to identify areas for growth and business development opportunities.
