The Nextpoint Meeting
I visited Nextpoint yesterday.
The visit was a preparation for the webinar on February 7th, but it was also a chance to hear about the merger of Reefpoint and Nextone. The name Nextpoint is probably more apt then I realized when I first heard the name. I thought it was a simple blend of the names, but the reality is that it matches the vision of where the company expects the market to grow.
As we become a massively mobile society, the Fixed Mobile convergence (substitution) story will have some major changes in the core of the network. The good news for carriers are there lots of opportunities for new services that are not direct to the consumer, but a blend of enablers that allow the end user and the application provider to benefit from the network operators infrastructure.
I will let them share their insights in the webinar, but it’s a good way to think about the Web 2.0 drivers and how they impact carriers.
