Leading CEOs Headline DTW Asia 2023

March 7, 2023 | TM Forum Web Support

TM Forum’s 3-day event will showcase over 55 hours of content and 150+ speakers, including the region’s leading Communication Services Providers (CSPs). DTW Asia will explore how industry collaboration is powering real change, solving some of the industry’s greatest challenges, and uncovering new opportunities.

TM Forum, the industry association driving digital transformation through collaboration, will hold DTW Asia in Bangkok for the first time from 14-16 March at the Centara Grand at Central World.

DTW Asia 2023 will demonstrate the breadth and depth of innovation across the industry and showcase solutions to transform business agility and efficiency, allowing the industry to seize new growth opportunities. As more telco businesses digitally transform, collaboration has never been more important – both within the industry and with customers.

Speaking on Digital Transformation World Asia TM Forum CEO Nik Willetts states, “As an industry that is constantly looking forward, we now must face the reality that we are at a crossroads. On the one hand, we continue to be the provider of networks – the connective tissue on which the digital economy rests. But is this sustainable? Is this really harnessing the true value and brilliance of this industry? Because there’s an alternate pathway, where we unlock significantly more value. That means co-creating value with partners in growing platforms and ecosystems. This can really harness the true potential of our industry to solve many challenges and redefine our definitions of growth.

“The challenges to realizing this opportunity are manyfold, and the incredible line-up of speakers and sessions at DTW Asia will prove essential for anyone in the telecoms industry looking to transform their business.”

TM Forum’s DTW Asia provides a platform for open, honest knowledge sharing and real collaboration, bringing together over 1,200 attendees, and over 150 CSPs to discuss digital transformation and debate the industry’s biggest issues.
