Join in this essential conversation—with five female leaders from EPAM, Ericsson UK & Ireland, Colt and Three UK.

How can digital transformation initiatives focusing on sustainable improvements help drive the industry to a digital and connected future?
Hosted on February 28th at the MWL Broadcast Studio, Hall 4, the panel of senior telco leaders will debate key overarching industry themes, such as sustainability and the telco agenda. Senior executives from EPAM Systems, Colt, Ericsson and Three UK will discuss how emerging technologies, such as AI, ML, IoT and edge computing, can enable the monetization of telcos' strategic investments in 5G while focusing on energy efficiency and network security. The panel will include:

- Belinda Finch – CIO, Three UK
- Alix Burge – Head of Telecom Consulting, EPAM
- Elaina Shekhter – Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer, EPAM – Moderator
"The maturity and commercialization of 5G will continue to drive telco leaders' decisions to address the evolving needs of enterprises and consumers sustainably," said Elaina Shekhter, Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer, EPAM.
