Azure
to host a series of European revenue assurance seminars
Operator revenue losses are currently estimated
to have risen to 13.7 per cent of turnover (Analysys,
2003). Azure has re-commissioned this survey and
will be presenting the results at the seminars and
every attendee will receive a free copy of the research.
The seminars will identify the sources of revenue
leakage networks, and outline the strategies operators
should adopt to minimise losses, and maximise revenue
opportunities.
Drawing on Azure’s industry experience and
case-study examples, the seminars will help delegates
understand the revenue assurance challenges operators
face on both their current and next-generation networks,
whether it be ensuring regulatory compliance, billing
accuracy or detecting and preventing fraudulent
network activity.
The dates and locations of the seminars are as follows:
Tuesday 21st September 2004
Hotel Kong Frederick, Copenhagen, Denmark
Thursday 23rd September 2004
Radisson SAS Strand Hotel, Stockholm, Sweden
Tuesday 19th October 2004
