VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Telecom retail is a fascinating and complex sector that is highly innovative, deeply interconnected, and full of challenges that can only be solved by working together. To gather the industry into one space, as well as inspire and educate, iQmetrix—North America’s only provider of Interconnected Commerce solutions for telecom—is thrilled to announce the return of its famous Summit event, now with an exciting evolution.
Introducing… SummitX.
SummitX will be held October 27-29, 2024, at the incredible desert destination of JW Marriott Scottsdale Camelback Resort and Spa in Arizona.
This unmissable event is the only one of its kind for telecom retail, bringing together carriers and MVNOs, authorized wireless retailers, device manufacturers, and telecom-retail-adjacent companies and vendors. It will offer a fantastic mix of conference and seminar sessions, unmatched networking opportunities, a vendor showcase, and a host of incredible social and breakout events across the spectacular desert resort property.
The 2024 SummitX theme is Innovation | Insights | Intelligence | Interconnection—concepts that capture the four key conference tracks. Two days of sessions and events on October 28 and 29 will see retail experts and keynote speakers exploring innovations on the future of telecom retail, insights into the sector and its challenges, intelligence on wider industry trends, and the interconnections created when we come together with likeminded professionals and complementary businesses.
Past Summit attendee Joe Reinke, IT Team Leader at BeMobile, said, “Summit has always been a gathering of the brightest minds and leaders in our industry. It’s where my passion for BI reporting was ignited, and I always come away with a clearer vision of how the industry is moving forward and how we can strategically align our efforts.”
In addition to SummitX sessions and events, the Vendor Showcase exhibition will highlight leading industry suppliers and innovative solutions that elevate telecom retailers’ operations and customer experiences, while offering those vendors unparalleled access to new partnership opportunities.
So, why is the evolution of iQmetrix’s much-loved Summit event now called SummitX?
X is for the great experiences we’ll create.
X is for interconnectivity and intersectionality.
X is for the 10 (long) years since our last Summit.
Megan Howse, Senior Vice President of Marketing at iQmetrix, said, “We couldn't be more thrilled to be bringing back our greatly missed Summit and taking it to the next level. SummitX is going to be a truly unmissable event of the kind you simply cannot experience anywhere else in the telecom retail industry. Alongside the cherished great experiences of the past, we’ll also be introducing new elements, creating a dynamic blend of tradition and innovation. It’s going to be so great reconnecting in person with our clients and partners. We can’t wait!”
Steve Eastlick, COO of Wireless World, said, “We have always found iQmetrix Summits to be a great experience. The atmosphere is always lively, and attending has helped our company in numerous ways. The breakout sessions have provided us with unique ideas and allowed us to collaborate with others to create more efficient processes. Working with iQmetrix has made our company better.”
