Make Telecommunications Firms Competitive? will serve as a forum for
generating strategies to address urgent management issues now facing
the industry. This two-day meeting will bring together the leaders of
the global telecommunications industry to share experiences, discuss

privatized telecommunications industry.
The Imperative of Post-Privatization Management
The privatization of the global telecommunications industry is headed
down a complex and uncertain path with no clear map available to lead
newly privatized firms to a successful transition_..until now. The
International Research and Conference Series on Post-Privatization
Management is dedicated to the successful transition of state-owned
enterprises (SOEs) to competitive firms operating in market economies.
After the conference, the dialogue will be sustained in several ways.
The Institute will use the conference to launch a Post-Privatization
Network (PPNet). PPNet will use the Internet to provide up-to-date
research findings and information as well as for the exchange of ideas
within the post-privatized management telecommunications community.
