Telecom Hub

What is the TelecomHUB?

TelecomHUB is the premier networking organization for Washington, DC area senior telecom and industry-related professionals. The HUB provides a high quality forum for information exchange, education and networking. The Washington, DC area is a leading telecommunications and high tech market in the country. The spectrum of related organizations includes traditional telephone companies, emerging carriers, service providers, and cutting edge technology companies.

As experienced individuals in the telecom industry, we have all developed contacts and companies we use daily to conduct and grow our business. The idea for the TelecomHUB came from a desire to unite individuals from different disciplines and create a network of industry professionals who can share information. This expanded awareness can broaden a company's perspective, as well as motivate them to move into new areas, and foster individual development on a personal and professional level.

The HUB's goal is to bring people together and create a network that assists both individuals and companies in staying ahead of the industry curve. We invite telecom executives from domestic and international carriers, IXCs, LECs, CLECs, ISPs, integrated communications providers and next generation VoIP suppliers as well as consultants, members of the financial community and other service providers
