“The most useful two days I have spent this year, we learned a huge amount across some interesting and inspirational sessions and were able to meet a lot of new contacts in a very short space of time in a very open and relaxed environment. Thank you.”

Netaxis Solutions Logo

“The Cavell Cloud Comms Summit really nails it for me. It’s big enough to attract a ton of interesting people from our telco target market but small enough to give you the opportunity to talk to them close up. We will definitely be coming to the next one.”
