MAYNARD, Mass., September 3, 2008 — Covergence, Inc., the leading provider of next-generation Session Border Control and Session Management solutions to the Fortune 1000, today announced that CTO and co-founder Ken Kuenzel will participate in a panel titled, “Deploying UC” at TMC’s INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO West 2008 on September 17th at 9:00 a.m. PT at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California.
INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO, held September 16-18, 2008, is the world’s largest and best-attended IP Communications trade show. At the 2007 West Coast event last September, the show drew more than 7,000 buyers and sellers of IP Communications products and services. This year’s show will be the 18th INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO, and TMC projects total attendance to once again exceed 7,000.
“It’s exciting to be able to take part in a discussion on the state of unified communications at this critical period in time,” said Kuenzel. “Now we’re finally beginning to see UC take on mainstream significance as enterprises aim to realize the immediate ROI and widespread financial and productivity benefits of managing real-time voice and video services.”
“We are very pleased that Ken will be participating in this year’s show. Covergence is widely recognized and respected as an industry leader in next-generation session management and unified communications, and I am confident that our attendees will appreciate and value the opportunity to hear his perspective on best practices for deploying UC,” said TMC president and conference chairman, Rich Tehrani. “Over the past twelve months, widespread deployment of IP Communications services by global service providers, businesses and governments has reinforced that this exciting technology is a viable, cost-effective communications solution. As a result, we are seeing a significant number of senior-level executives attending INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO as a means of learning about the technology so they too can take advantage of its benefits.”
