The MPLS & Ethernet World Congress has, over the last ten years, proven to be one of the key data networking events for senior professionals from service providers. For 2009 the key topics planned are: video transport, mobile backhaul and Ethernet/MPLS convergence. Once again Nortel will be participating as a platinum sponsor.

In 2008 the event attracted more than 1000 delegates from service providers, equipment vendors, component suppliers and integrators. A similar level of interest is expected this year, so book early to avoid disappointment.

Over the years a consistently high quality of technical paper has been presented at the event and this has been ensured by a rigorous selection process applied by the scientific committee. This year's agenda includes four speakers from Nortel.

15.00 Seamless Ethernet Transport - Don Fedyk, Senior Advisor, CTO Strategic Standards

Wednesday 11th February
8.30 Opening Talk - Dave Allan, Consultant Architect, CTO Office
