IP Convergence TV (http://www.ipconvergencetv.com) is a website dedicated to providing high-value, strategic content in the area of IP communications, Fixed Mobile Convergence, and IPTV for decision makers and industry influencers.

It is a non-profit, industry-wide initiative supported by a charter group of community partners, including AudioCodes, all actively involved in complementary aspects of IP Convergence.

The website, launched on October 25th, 2007 aims to help service providers and industry professionals better understand the IP convergence opportunity and develop successful roadmaps and service offerings in a rapidly evolving market.

IP Convergence TV includes latest information on trends and issues in IP convergence, and enables visitors to shape their own views and expertise thanks to industry analysis, thought leadership, opinion pieces and best practices guidance.

Content addresses both wireline and mobile markets, and covers the full range of multimedia IP communications, including IP Telephony, Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC), Triple Play, Quad Play, IPTV and IMS applications. The information is available in the form of video interviews, opinion pieces, articles, white papers, podcasts and webinars.

To ensure the quality and consistency of the website content, Jon Arnold, an independent industry analyst and Principal of J Arnold & Associates, serves as Community Advocate and Portal Editor of IP Convergence TV.

“As a non-profit resource, IP Convergence TV brings clarity and real value to a space that needs a unifying voice”, said Mr. Arnold. “The benefit to the community will only grow as more partners join the project, contribute content and initiate debates.”

IP Convergence TV is currently backed by the following industry players: AudioCodes, BEA, BitBand, BlueSlice, Cicero, Comverse, Intel, Tilgin and Verimatrix. Experts in each of the companies join with other opinion makers, industry leaders, analysts and convergence gurus to contribute content to the website free of charge.

“IP Convergence TV is about community and shared interests,” continued Mr. Arnold. “Our mission is to create a focal point for service providers and key industry influencers and believe that the website will be a particularly useful resource for technical and strategic decision makers actively engaged in using convergence technologies to bring new services to market. It is a new approach that makes IP Convergence TV a unique destination.”
