The publication commenced life as a quarterly regional magazine for the Latin American market, in 1996. Originally published in tri-lingual format (English, Portuguese and Spanish), to assist decision makers better understand the effects of Liberalisation, the publication has grown and developed globally to anticipate and discuss the trends in the ICT industry.
The publication initially progressed to cover other developing regions, such as Asia-Pacific, Africa & the Middle East and Eastern Europe. However, with the accession of ten former Eastern countries migrating to the EU, this former Eastern Europe issue has now evolved into a Europe edition. Due to demand from our readers, we were encouraged to launch a North American issue, which completed our global presence in June 2005.
The magazine is a major sponsor of most leading trade shows regionally/globally. Where the magazine is not a sponsor, a representative from the magazine is still normally in attendance.
