MATRIXX Software CTO Marc Price to Speak at DTW24

Price joins leading operators to demonstrate the impact of real-time monetization on transforming customer experience; MATRIXX will showcase the future of AI in telecom through catalyst projects at Digital Transformation World 2024.

MATRIXX Software, a global leader in 5G and digital monetization solutions, today highlighted key activities for TMForum’s DTW24 Ignite, June 18-20. This year’s event focuses on the shift from digital telco to AI-native telco and will feature MATRIXX CTO, Marc Price, on opening day in a fireside chat alongside Hesham Fahmy, CIO of TELUS and Bertrand Grèzes-Besset, CIO of Orange Poland. Their discussion, entitled Digital Business Architectures: Convergent, Composable and Cloud Native across All Telco Operations, will explore how MATRIXX helped both operators leverage real-time charging and monetization as part of a wider digital transformation and customer experience journey.

“TM Forum’s flagship event brings together leaders across the industry, and it is the ideal time to showcase how telecom pioneers are rethinking the importance of digital architectures, AI and innovation,” said Price. “We are excited to join some of our key partners in discussing groundbreaking ideas and highlighting some of the great achievements being made across digital transformation and the enablement of next-generation services.”

Price’s fireside chat is part of a wider presentation focused on how open APIs and reusable platform capabilities fuel transformation and innovation. It will be moderated by Ian Turkington, TM Forum’s VP of Architecture and APIs, and will take place on June 18 from 4:00 - 5:30 pm on Stage B.

MATRIXX will also participate in three core Catalyst Projects showcased during the conference, all located in the Quad. Each project focuses on possible implementations of AI for the telco industry, both near and long-term.
