Taking place in Cape Town, Durban, Bloemfontein, Pretoria and Johannesburg from the 17 to the 26 April, the focus of the seminars will be on the latest international trends and developments in IP telephony and the impact these will have on South African business.
“The focal point of the seminars will be on the future of telecommunications, specifically, convergence and what this will mean for South African business,” confirms Roland Bühler, managing director of Global Call Centre Solutions (GCCS), “and so we are delighted to have Jaco Voigt, the country's foremost expert on VoIP, as our keynote speaker.”
Bühler is, nonetheless, quick to point out that the seminars are not just for IP telephony experts and that the challenges and benefits will be explained in terms that the whole business community understands. “As our theme - 'Telecoms that makes cents' - suggests, these seminars will arm attendees with a clear understanding of the commercial and productivity gains possible,” he explains.
The theme of the seminars also reflects GCCS' commitment to offering South African business cutting-edge technology on affordable terms. “We are able to do this because of the strength of our team of engineers,” maintains Bühler. “The team has spent two years evolving solutions from the latest open source software in response to the main concerns of business: cost and complexity.”
Determined to spearhead a shake-up of the industry in South Africa, Bühler is aware that the seminars could generate some lively debate. “We have some strong opinions, based on our experience and expertise, which we have never been afraid to express,” he concedes, “but we also welcome forward-thinking debate and do not see this as a one-way street. GCCS' entire approach has come from listening to South African business and we see these seminars as the natural next episode in that ongoing conversation.”
