Keynote speakers announced for Comms Connect NZ

Next Generation Critical Communications (NGCC) and Hourua will headline day one of Comms Connect NZ, to be held in Christchurch on 4 June, while One New Zealand will headline day two on 5 June.

NGCC Project Lead Matthew Hansen will be joined by Hourua GM and Head of Business Vaughan Matthews to share the latest update on the next-gen critical communications network for first responders on day one. One NZ’s GM of Network Services, Sharina Nisha, will headline day two with the latest developments in satellite comms technology being driven by the telco in partnership with Elon Musk’s SpaceX.

A series of local customer case studies will feature on the program, alongside an update from the Radio Spectrum Management team, the RFUANZ annual general meeting and some of the most popular papers from Comms Connect Melbourne last October. Registrations for the conference will open in March.
