3 Foreword 13-14 oct On behalf of ETIS, I am pleased to invite you to our Community Gathering 2016. The Gathering will be organized in Zagreb, Croatia on 13-14 October at the Esplanade Hotel. The theme of the ETIS Community Gathering 2016 is: Delivering the Digital Transformation Promise. Digital Transformation is indeed upon the telecom industry. We need to re-invent ourselves to outperform our competitors, to become more profitable, improve customer experience, to generate more revenue and to drive efficiency in our products and processes. This makes the telecom industry a dynamic and very exciting one. Things (IoT) provides huge opportunities, beyond the pure connectivity role for a telco. In order to execute its digital transformation strategy the telecom industry will need to have a clear position with respect to IoT, open APIs, Big Data (including Security and Data Privacy), SDN/NFV s Dev/Ops and micro-services technologies. This will be complemented by the Digital Innovation Approach of Swisscom, which will be presented by Markus Messerer, Head of Corporate Strategy. Gordana Kovacevic, CEO of Ericsson Nicola Tesla Group will then provide her view on Digital Transformation for the Telco Industry. The session will end with an interactive wrap-up and Q&A with the whole audience. From surveys and interviews we held with our members earlier this year, it became clear that all of our members are embracing digital transformation: self-care, e-sales. e-billing and back-office process automation are on everybody s agenda to reach the corporate objectives. Our members have an omni-channel ambition eventually leading towards a single customer journey through all channels. Telcos can also help other industries to digitally transform themselves: cities, health, finance and manufacturing will undergo huge changes the next decade. Telcos can help provide the necessary connectivity, platforms, even services to materialize smart cities, e-health, smart payments and the fourth industrial revolution. The Internet of All of these topics are at the heart of our new ETIS Strategy, which I will present during the Common Session of our Gathering. Our Working Group meetings will also address the relevant topics for each of them during the Gathering and in their subsequent meetings. The Management Board of ETIS has also decided to set-up a new Working Group, the Innovation Working Group and a new Task Force, the Data Privacy Task Force. Both initiatives will be kicked-off in Zagreb. The morning Common Session of our Gathering will feature a Keynote presentation from Davor Tomaskovic, CEO of Hrvatski Telekom, who will provide insights into how Hrvatski Telekom is digitally transforming itself. The remainder of day 1 and day 2 will be dedicated to Working Group sessions. We have organized joint sessions of Working Groups to get a better understanding and collaboration between the ETIS Working Groups. On Friday we will visit Ericsson Nicola Tesla facilities to get demos of digital transformation use cases. The Gathering is an ideal opportunity for all of the ETIS members, Associates and Partners to get to network with one another, learn about each other s activities, plans, best practices and why not, discuss partnerships.
