20 th ICIN Conference Innovations in Clouds, Internet and Networks

Since 1989 the ICIN conferences have been bringing together leading internet and telecom experts from industry, universities and government worldwide. ICIN operates on a rigorous peer review process and has an enviable track record of identifying key technology and service trends – and analysing their impact on business models – before they become widely recognised.

ICIN conferences cover both technology and business issues. They typically feature one day of tutorials followed by a three day programme in which delegates can select state-of-the-art presentations by worldwide leading industry experts. ICIN is well-known for thought-provoking presentations of the highest quality on emerging technology, architecture, and industry trends impacting intelligent communications services.
