The Conference is an ideal opportunity to discuss the ground-breaking agreement made at the WRC in Geneva to clear the way for mobile services in 700 MHz in the Middle East, Africa and Europe.
Operators, regulators and manufacturers will have many questions about what this means in practise and the Middle East Spectrum Conference is the ideal place to find the answers.
The keynote speakers include Francois Rancy, Director of the ITU's Radiocommunication Bureau and the Chairman of the World Radio Conference, Tariq Al-Awadhi, who is also the Executive Director Spectrum and International Affairs, at the TRA in the UAE.
The Middle East Spectrum Conference has been organized in conjunction with Bahrain's Telecoms Regulatory Authority and among those making presentations will be the Kingdom's Telecoms Minister, H.E. Mr. Kamal bin Ahmed.
