SUMMARY:ICT SCRM Task Force Conference 2024:  Innovations in ICT Supply Chain Risk Management
DESCRIPTION:SMB information technology (IT) and communications providers represent more than 160\,000 companies in the United States; connect millions of households and businesses to the internet every day; and acquire\, build\, and integrate technology solutions for themselves and their customers. \nImplementing supply chain security practices is therefore critical for these ICT entities. For many\, knowing where to start — and how an SMB can take on the financial\, personnel\, or other resources necessary to implement certain ICT supply chain practices — can seem overwhelming. The panel will discuss how to practically identify ICT-related supply chain risks\, how those risks might be different than in larger companies\, and how best to mitigate against the risks. \nJoin TIA for Panel 3 – Small and Medium Sized Businesses: Understanding their Unique SCRM Challenges \nModerator:  Jeffrey Goldthorp\, Chief Data Officer\, Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau\, Federal Communications Commission (TF) \nPanelists:\nNiloofar Razi Howe\, Senior Operating Partner\, Energy Impact Partners [also CSAC member]\nJerry Horton\, Director of Technology\, Blue Valley Technologies  (TF)\nOla Sage\, CEO\, CyberRx\nMike Regan\, Vice President of Business Performance\, Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) (TF)

SUMMARY:Webinar: TR-60 WIIFM - What's In It For Me?
DESCRIPTION:Feedback from our previous webinars has been that IT professionals are frustrated that they seem to be the only ones thinking about ongoing ICT infrastructure management and their common sense advice isn’t understood. Few of their colleagues seem to be on the same wavelength. So what is life cycle thinking and how does it provide the framework to align business outcomes for industry\, enterprise management teams and ICT resources? And WIIFM – What’s in it for me? \nSpeakers:  Jerry Bowman and David Cuthbertson \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Master the ICT Supply Chain Security Management SCS 9001 Standard: Training Courses for Certification Success
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an insightful webinar exploring the comprehensive training courses we have designed and are offering to help you master the SCS 9001 Standard. This session will provide essential guidance for organization leaders\, third-party auditors\, and anyone else involved in implementing\, maintaining\, or enhancing an SCS 9001 certified Supply Chain Security Management System. \nThe escalating threat of cyber terrorism is expected to cost companies and national economies over USD $10 trillion annually by 2025\, with attacks on the ICT supply chain posing significant risks to global networks. In response\, the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) has released the updated SCS 9001 Release 2.0\, the first global Cybersecurity and Supply Chain Security Standard specifically for the ICT industry. \nDuring this webinar\, our expert speakers\, Mike Regan\, VP Business Performance at TIA\, and Chad Kymal\, CTO at OMNEX\, TIA’s training partner\, will delve into the new enhancements and expanded coverage of SCS 9001 Release 2.0. \nStarting in July\, TIA will offer a series of on-demand and leader-led training courses designed to introduce and guide the implementation and certification process of the SCS 9001 R2.0 standard. These courses aim to simplify the path both to compliance and to achieving an effective security management system\, ensuring that organizations can effectively align with the latest cybersecurity and supply chain security requirements and practices. \nSpeakers: Chad Kymal\, CTO at OMNEX and Mike Regan\, VP Business Performance at TIA \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Building the Broadband Workforce: Finding and Training Workers
DESCRIPTION:As billions of dollars from the federal infrastructure law begin to flow\, state officials and internet service providers face a tall task: Ensuring a sufficiently skilled workforce to accomplish ambitious plans for broadband internet access while recruiting and training workers in rural and geographically diverse communities. Employers are competing for talent with other industries seeking similar workers\, while officials are trying to determine the most efficient use of public investments to support job training. \nIn this webinar\, attendees will: \n\nGet a practical overview of how two states are implementing broadband workforce development programs that align community colleges\, workforce agencies\, employers\, and other partners.\n\n\nFind out about tried-and-true public policies that help nontraditional workers find on-ramps into the industry and improve retention of existing workers.\n\n\nGet an overview of how state Labor Market Information and data resources can inform upskilling and retraining efforts. Learn how broadband leaders can capitalize not just on BEAD but on other public investments to develop the workforce they need\, in rural communities\, exurban areas\, and beyond.\n\nBring your questions! \nSpeakers: \n\nAmanda Bergson-Shilcock\, Senior Fellow at National Skills Coalition\nDave Stehlin\, CEO at TIA\nMichael Murphy\, Senior Project Manager\, Colorado Broadband Office\nAlan Spell\, Assistant Extension Professor at the University of Missouri-Columbia\nLeandro Garcia\, Florida Broadband Office\nJosh Morby\, Director of the Wisconsin Broadband Workforce Coalition\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Webinar: TIA-942-C Data Center Standard: What’s New?
DESCRIPTION:The recent revision to ANSI/TIA-942-C addresses the evolving needs and challenges of modern data center infrastructure by incorporating new technologies that will lead to improved data center performance and efficiencies and ensure that data center designs remain robust\, scalable\, and resilient in the face of technological advancements and changing demands. The newly authorized TIA-942-C standard will include several significant modifications from the TIA-942-B version—including the incorporation of previously published standards documents\, recognition of a new media type and connectivity\, new requirements\, new recommendations\, and more. \nSpeakers: Jonathan Jew (Chair TIA-42.6 subcommittee)\, Jacques Fluet (TIA)\, and Dave Kozischek (Corning) \nRegister here

SUMMARY:6GSymposium
DESCRIPTION:Building Value Through The 6G Creation Process \nWhile technologists and researchers are excited by the possibilities inherent in future generations of telecoms\, business leaders are cautious about more demands for up-front investment and uncertain gains. We need new economic and commercial models to ensure the industry thrives; models which don’t wait for 6G but which will enable companies to make the most of new capabilities as they emerge. \nTo enable this\, we need to build a fresh dynamic in telecoms; closer collaboration between technical and commercial leaders to enable a shared understanding of where value may lie in the next generation\, what customers in the public sector\, enterprises and consumers need and how to deliver those requirements. This generational change is something that goes far beyond pure technology but can and should involve policymakers and regulators; business decision-makers; and operational systems. \nIn Washington DC significant decision-makers will be debating essential questions for the progress of the telecoms industry: Join us to have your say. \nAttendance is welcomed from the public sector. Please contact alex.lawrence@6gworld.com to secure your place. \nWhat to expect: \n\nInteractive conversations and public debates on essential policy\, commercial and technology issues.\nHigh-level meetings to dig deeper into sensitive concerns.\nNetworking with a wide variety of stakeholders from across North America and beyond.\nLive demonstrations of cutting-edge technology.\n\nRegister here
