With just a few days left before CASA24 kicks off, the excitement is palpable. We’ve worked tirelessly to bring together the most influential voices, the brightest minds, and the key players from across the CPaaS and telco industries. Our goal was simple: to create an event that doesn’t just scratch the surface but dives deep into the future of communications — and I’m thrilled with what we’ve built.
From the start, it’s been our mission to curate the right mix of speakers, experts, and attendees who can drive meaningful conversations about where our industry is headed. We didn’t want to settle for just another event — we wanted to create a platform where everyone who attends leaves with actionable insights, new connections, and fresh perspectives.
The Right Voices at the Right Time
CASA24 is more than just a conference; it’s the intersection of innovation, collaboration, and vision. We’ve pulled in a fantastic lineup of speakers and moderators, people who are truly shaping the future of CPaaS and telcos. From telcos and CPaaS providers to technology companies, analysts, hyperscalers, and beyond, we’ve gathered voices that matter.
Almost everyone with deep knowledge and insights into telcos and CPaaS will be here. These are the experts, the visionaries, and the disruptors who will help us all understand how to seize the opportunities ahead — from APIs and programmability to security, AI, and fraud prevention.
Forward-Looking Conversations That Matter
At CASA24, we’re not just reflecting on where the industry has been. We’re asking: how can we do better as an industry? What can we learn from past mistakes? And more importantly, what can we do to drive the industry forward? The focus is squarely on the future — where innovation, growth, and collaboration are key themes.
The inclusion of UCaaS and CCaaS providers, who are increasingly looking at CPaaS, highlights just how convergent this space is becoming. APIs and programmability are central to this convergence, and CASA24 is positioned to explore the full breadth of what’s possible as the industry evolves.
Timely Industry Announcements Fueling the Buzz
This week’s announcements couldn’t be more timely. Just yesterday, we saw Ericsson and a dozen tier-one telcos announce a joint venture focused on network APIs — a move that has huge implications for our industry. Earlier in the week, we also saw the new iPhone launch, complete with iOS 18’s proper support for RCS. These developments are just the tip of the iceberg for what we’ll be discussing at CASA24.
You Won’t Be the Smartest Person in the Room
As Steve Jobs once said, “If you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room.” Well, at CASA24, you’ll definitely not be in the wrong room. The level of speakers and attendees is simply awesome, with top talent from across the industry. It’s a rare opportunity to engage with the best minds in the field and be part of conversations that are shaping the future of CPaaS and telco innovation.
Gratitude for an Incredible Team and Supporters
None of this could have come together without the tireless efforts of our team. They’ve been instrumental in turning CASA24 into the leading event for the CPaaS and telco industries. I’m deeply grateful for their work and for the confidence that our members, sponsors, and speakers have shown by making time to participate.
CASA24 isn’t just an event — it’s a gathering of the minds that will shape the future of communications. I’m beyond excited to see the ideas, partnerships, and opportunities that emerge over the next few days. Here’s to pushing the boundaries of innovation and growth, together.
My lifetime in IT and telecoms has been dedicated to innovation, building bridges and creating change. From the early days of cloud communications to working with operators on innovations and business development, and currently emphasizing APIs, CPaaS/CX and AI, my journey has been one of continuous evolution.
As founding partner at CPaaS Acceleration Alliance and The Next Cloud I'm privileged to help global telcos and techcos thrive in a fast changing world - through events, community building, strategy and global business development. I thrive on challenges and change, strategizing in cloud communications, and bringing people together for mutual success. Travel and continuous learning are my passions.
I believe the global communications industry is pivoting to prioritize customer experience and impactful solutions over mere technology and platforms, and we can tackle societal challenges by merging the strengths of corporates and innovators within new ecosystems.
