We are delighted to announce the CISPE event “The impact of internet traffic fees on the cloud sector and its customers”, organised on 22 June in Brussels.

The event will provide an opportunity to explore how the much discussed “sending-party-network-pays" model could specifically impact European cloud services and content delivery networks (CDNs).

Amidst the ongoing Europe's digital connectivity debate, CISPE aims to bring together a panel of expert voices to shed light on the unique characteristics of the cloud and CDN sector, as well as their customers.

The event will be available both in-person and online, to allow wide participation.

You can sign up for online in in person attendance by registering here.
