"There’s no other place on the planet where you can get together with owners of these communications companies and talk turkey." — Joe Marion, President, Cloud Communications Alliance
As global tensions reshape the telecom landscape, the Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) is assembling top leaders for its 2025 CCA European Summit in Zaventem, near Brussels, on June 16–17. In a conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, CCA President Joe Marion offered a detailed preview of the timely and high-level agenda that will bring together executives, analysts, and policy experts for frank dialogue and strategic planning.
With the theme "Navigating the Geopolitical and Economic Crossfire," this intimate 75-person summit is designed for C-level executives and decision-makers. Marion emphasized the event’s relevance to both European and North American providers: "There are no walls in communications," he said, noting how cross-border policy changes, tariffs, and credit issues are affecting providers globally.
Key Highlights of the Agenda:
Marion noted that the conference has been designed by European members, for European members, ensuring relevance on topics such as tariffs, trade barriers, and innovation gaps between the U.S. and Europe—particularly in mobile and AI.
“This isn’t a trade show,” Marion stressed. “It’s where real conversations happen—where partnerships are formed, deals are made, and innovation is shared.” Attendees can expect meaningful networking in a close-knit environment that fosters transparent exchange, away from the sales pitches and crowds of conventional events.
Event Details:
Doug Green concluded the podcast by urging attendees from across the globe to take part: “If you're in the business of communications, this is where you want to be.”
