MONACO - THE MAJESTIC ROCK

The Principality of Monaco with its famous Rock lies between France and the Mediterranean. Space is limited but the site is enchanting and unfurls along a narrow coastal strip of four kilometres bounded by the mountainous foothills of the Tte de Chien and Mont Agel. Four districts make up the town: Monaco-Ville, historic seat of the Principality, located upon the rock where the Prince Palace stands, Monte-Carlo, the district surrounding its Casino, La Condamine around Port Hercule, Fontvieille, and the new industrial area built on ground reclaimed from the sea.With over 300 days of sunshine a year and mild temperatures, it celebrates with passion the arts, culture, outstanding cuisine, restoration of mind and body, and high-adrenaline activities like the Formula One Grand Prix, casino gaming, land and water sports and exciting nightlife.

WE ASKED PEOPLE THEIR THOUGHTS ON THE SHOW FLOOR AND THIS IS WHAT THEY SAID:
Highlight was all the 100G implementation case studies from both vendors and operators. Very useful. (Telekom Indonesia) The mix of vendors and operators, as well as the programme was excellent. (Current Analysis) a very good turnout the number of attendees, the level of attendance, the presentations are very high level and the level of interaction is very good
(Cisco)

SOUNDBITES FROM 2011:

An upbeat WDM & Next Generation Optical Networking conference. The industry is clearly bouncing back: attendance was up, more equipment was on display in the demo meeting rooms, and customer trafc was up. Carriers reported on 40G deployments, OTN switching continues to gain in deployments and the industry discussion continued on the ROADMs evolution to CDC
(Ovum)

A show that is bridging the gap between pure optical transmission world and what is the next generation network and marrying that transmission into the packet world. This is an ideal show for us and exactly the right kind of market segment, the right kind of customers and the number of people has just been amazing this year.
