Voice Peering Forum : Voice Mashup Business Models

Next Monday, I’m really pleased and excited to be running the “Voice Mashup Business Models” panel and the “Service Delivery Platforms” panel at the Voice Peering Forum in San Francisco. The REASON I’m so excited is because the caliber of speakers we have is simply excellent. To prepare for the panel, I asked a number of the speakers spend a few minutes with me on the phone, and I recorded it for you to hear….

  • Garry Galinski is the Director of Product Innovation for Call Genie. If you have fifteen minutes, you really need to take a listen to this podcast, because Call Genie is providing an excellent platform for deploying services for carriers that follow the “two sided market” ideas championed by the smart guys at Telco 2.0. If you are unfamiliar with two sided business models, or think that the only business model for telephony is termination, listen up. Just like I think that Backflip has really solved the go-to market problem for CEBP enablement software, I think Call Genie is spot-on with providing enhanced services to carriers.
  • Pankaj Shroff is the Chief Applications Architect for Sonus Networks. You could view Sonus as the smallest of the major switch vendors, or the largest of the next generation vendors. Either way, when somebody high up talks, I’m focused in. In this interview, Pankaj hints about how the larger carriers view the battle of the future.
  • Irv Shapiro is the CEO of Ifbyphone, a service provider targeted towards enabling voice mashups for SMB, mid-market and smaller workgroups in the Enterprise. In our conversation, Irv and I touch on a bunch of topics… listen for Irv’s understanding of what workgroups need successfully deploy voice mashups.
  • Shai Berger is the founder of Fonolo, the quintessential Telco 2.0 service provider. If you are a company that provides an API and targets the consumer, I would study Shai and Fonolo… it is the best example I can come up with when people ask me what voice mashups look like for the consumer.
  • Bill Binnig is the VP of Marketing from Jaduka, a service provider targeted a bit higher on the food chain, providing voice APIs for the Enterprise. In our conversation, Bill and I talk about people confuse VoIP and next generation voice applications, which might have nothing to do with VoIP.

    A housewife has beaten over 50 entries with her painful investment experience to win the top prize in this year’s “My Investment Story” competition.

    Ms Annie Lok recounted how she sold a snack shop she and her husband had been running for their entire life for over $ 300,000 but lost it all after she was persuaded by her cousin to invest the money in shares which eventually became penny stocks when the market turned last year.

    The money was intended to pay for the tuition fees of her son who was entering a well-known overseas university.

    Ms Lok, together with nine other winners, will share their investment stories at an award presentation ceremony tonight to be hosted by the Chairman of the SFC, Mr Eddy Fong (Note1).

    “The competition is a continued effort by the SFC to promote investor education. Through experience sharing, we hope the competition will help promulgate a healthy investment attitude and raise the public awareness of the associated risks before making investment decisions,” Mr Fong said.

    “The winning stories provide some very useful lessons as to how gaining product knowledge, good risk management and proper attitudes toward investing can help make sound investment decisions,” he added.

    The competition is organized jointly by the SFC and its media partners – Commercial Radio One and Sing Tao Daily. The winners were selected by a panel of judges.

    Winners will share their investment experiences on Commercial Radio One programme “CrossTrade” every Tuesday and Thursday starting from 26 August. Winning entries will also be published in the Investment Weekly Magazine of Sing Tao Daily from the week of 25 August and on the SFC’s InvestEd website.
