IX Reach sponsored, exhibited and attended Telx MarketplaceLIVE
“Enhancing Connectivity Through Insight”
IX Reach exhibited and sponsored the popular event which brought together over 800 attendees and hosted over 70 high-profile exhibitors for this one-day event. Ruth,
Rebecca and
Elaine represented IX Reach at Telx’s
MarketplaceLIVE East event in New York City on June 5th 2014.
“Exhibiting at MarketplaceLIVE is a unique experience—a focus on creating a neutral networking space where Telx clients and partners can promote the services they deliver from a Telx data center. Simply put, we strip away the marketing noise and allow you to get to the core of your business.”
Douglas Merrill, Co-Founder and CEO of
ZestFinance.com, is the former Chief Information Officer at Google. Douglas drew on real life and real world experience to help companies build their own thriving, strategic, and sustainable cultures of creativity. His passionate, interesting and enlightening talk held everyone's attention as he spoke about Big Data and its place in the present and future of telecoms.
The first panel discussion was introduced by Andrew Baird, Director of Product Management at Telx, entitled "The Evolution of Content Distribution; Adapt or Die: Facing Changes & Challenges in Content Consumption".

From the 'Internet of Things' to wearable technology, the growing volume of content is breathtaking. The need for content anytime and anywhere is bringing real challenges for providers and enterprises needing consistent quality and ROI.
After a full day of meetings and networking, the attendees made their way over to the Eventi Hotel on Avenue of the Americas, to continue networking and socialising whilst taking in the atmosphere of a New York roof top bar with a cocktail in hand.
