Welcome to Providence, Rhode Island a beautiful port city in the charming and history-rich New England area of northeast United States. Providence is host city to INTELEC ’06. Because all telecommunications technologies are power-dependant, the conference theme “Telecom Power: New Developments to Support the Latest Technologies,” appropriately draws focus to the ever-changing power needs of developing systems. What hasn’t changed is the compelling need to respond swiftly and efficiently to disasters such as the devastation to New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast blown in with Hurricane Katrina.
Herculean efforts by telecommunications carriers and their supply and installation contractors make the crucial difference in restoring services needed so desperately by the affected communities. INTELEC ’06 will host a spirited workshop on disaster preparation and recovery. All who attend will take-away valuable contacts, insights and ideas with which to bolster their company’s disaster plans and training initiatives.
INTELEC ’06 will provide solutions, generate ideas and be a forum for the exchange of information between colleagues among a multinational cadre of telecommunications professionals. In addition to the primary Technical Program of invited and submitted papers, INTELEC grows as a venue for credible training with an expanded Tutorial program of essential career development in telecom power and grounding.
Providence is an exciting city steeped in its rich New England seaport history and yet a bustling, modern convention venue. World class restaurants and charming little bistros and shops all are within easy walking distance of the Convention Center and the conference hotels. We promise to keep spouses entertained with interesting and informative spousal tours.
The city of Providence and the INTELEC team are pulling together to fulfill our promise of an exciting and valuable INTELEC ‘06. Together, we look forward to welcoming you to Providence.
Warm regards,
