CTIA 2009

April 16, 2009

Our company had the opportunity to be a part of this conference this year in Las Vegas. I have struggled to come up with the right words to describe my enthusiasm and two-thumbs up feeling after it was over. It was a great getting to spend time with our clients, partners and friends.

While I have spent days reading and reviewing all of the latest and future trends of the wireless industry, that’s not what really stood to me. Here’s what I can’t get over…

“The feeling!”

The “feeling” was exuberant, upbeat, enthusiastic, positive, reassuring, confident…blissful! I mean, did 40k + people not know we are in a recession?! It sure didn’t seem like it. The crazy thing is that I thought I was the only one who had these feelings until I saw this article:

CTIA – Wireless industry is ’shining light’ during recession

In summary, it just felt great to be a part of something that wasn’t part of the mainstream bad news. I think for those of us in the wireless/telecom sector…we have a lot to be thankful and look forward to.

Anyone else have similar thoughts?
