A short week because of Thanksgiving here in the US. We kicked off the week with “A multi sided marketplace platform for telco enabled products” by Werner Eriksen or Working Group Two. This is a great update on the status of WG2, how they are building their multi-sided marketplace, across customers, innovators, and carriers.

Werner was followed by Part 2 of the Programmable Communications Review, focused on Landscape, Market Sizing and Growth. In this series I talk about the risk of a new COVID variant forming, and it looks like it’s happened sooner than expected, originating from Southern Africa. With 30 mutations on the protein spike, there’s a risk it could evade current vaccines.

And the final session of the week was a Review of TADHack 2021, with contributions from Surbhi of Symbl.ai and Michael of Telnyx. I’ll add more sponsor sessions as they come in.
