Teleforum elects JT chief exec as its chairman
THE Forum for Telecom Operators of Small States has elected the chief executive of Channel Islands telco JT, Graeme Millar, as its chairman.
Teleforum brings together 18 operators from as far apart as Suriname, the Cape Verde Islands and Luxembourg and provides its diverse membership with a way to share their experiences and tackle some of the unique challenges which small operators face in the global market.
‘On a professional level, the election is a great honour,’ said Mr Millar.
‘There are a number of challenges and technological advances on the immediate horizon which will have a unique impact on smaller jurisdictions and this is a valuable forum which allows us to learn from each other, work together to reduce costs and build joint platforms to reduce the impact of subscale operations.’
Discussions and workshops are held several times a year at which members and major players in the industry engage, identify solutions and training needs and benefit from each other’s experiences. The organisation has held 27 meetings since its formation in 2000.
