London, August 20: Informa Tech has today launched The Broadband 50 people to watch, which highlights the most influential leaders, innovators and disrupters who are connecting the world.
The list has been curated by Phil Harvey the editor -in-chief of Light Reading, as well as Julie Kunstler senior principal analyst – Broadband Access Infrastructure at Omdia and Jamie Lenderman, senior analyst broadband access infrastructure Omdia. Industry journalist Paula Gilbert and Nicole Ferraro were also involved in the curation of the Broadband 50 to Watch list.
The Broadband 50 to watch was curated by consulting leading service provider analysts at Omdia, who identified vendor and service provider performance, as well as identifying executives and companies across the entire broadband networking stack.
Phil Harvey, editor in chief at Light reading commented: “When we started working on this list, we wanted to highlight the people propelling the next generation of broadband networks and services forward.
“We intentionally did not fill the list with the CEOs of billion-dollar market cap monopolies. We didn’t do a financial analysis of each firm or pick companies based on their stock’s performance potential”
