Mexican official to headline WCA event in June

WASHINGTON—COFETEL, Mexico’s federal telecommunications committee, announced its chairman, Jorge Arredondo Martinez, will headline WCA’s Latin American Broadband Wireless Forum on June 24 in Boston.

Martinez is scheduled to follow a session that will include officials from Mexico’s MVS Comunicaciones and representatives from Diveo Broadband Networks, Latin America’s largest spectrum holders, and NEOTEC, a Brazilian wireless association—all of whom will discuss their next-generation plans.

“Mexico is showing the way to advanced applications through wireless broadband, and we are honored that its leaders will describe the great opportunities for the public now within reach,” said Andrew Kreig, WCA’s president.
