CONFERENCE & NETWORKING

8:00AM REGISTRATION AND WELCOME COFFEE

9:50AM KEYNOTE PANEL DISCUSSION: COMPETITION AS A STIMULUS – CHANGES TO THE DYNAMICS OF THE TELECOMS MARKET With the arrival of a new mobile operator, the market has become even more competitive. ISPs have outbid mobile operators for access to spectrum via auction and thus making it more challenging to gain market share. Recent regulation preventing price wars has forced operators to be more innovative about how they differentiate themselves to existing and potential customers.

Moderator: Damien Dujacquier, Senior Partner, ROLAND BERGER

Wai Lin Tun, CEO & Co-Founder, FRONTIIR Yoshiaki Benino, COO, MPT KSGM JOINT OPERATIONS Vikram Sinha, CEO, OOREDOO MYANMAR

10:50AM COFFEE AND NETWORKING BREAK

11:30AM PRESENTATION: SUSTAINABLE GROWTH TO STRENGTHEN THE ENTIRE TELECOMS ECOSYSTEM IN MYANMAR Aye Mya Mya Kyi, CEO, ANANDA Dr Myo Ohn, CEO, CAMPANA

11:50AM MMIX: The Benefits of an Internet Exchange in Myanmar Thein Myint Khine, Founder, MMIX

12:10PM PANEL DISCUSSION: WRITING THE RULES FOR RIGHT OF WAY: UNLOCKING NEXT GENERATION ACCESS AND METRO CONNECTIVITY Mobile connectivity is now fairly well established in Myanmar, but fibre is still a challenge, especially in metro areas. Companies are attempting to upgrade to better levels of service, such as FTTX, which offers enterprises and home-owners in residential areas the relative luxury of a high-quality, consistent connection to the Internet, however, challenges such as right of way and access to existing infrastructure, such as railway lines, is slowing down the process.

2:30PM PANEL DISCUSSION: CARRIERS, CABLES AND CONTENT: CONNECTING MYANMAR WITH SOUTH-EAST ASIA International investment in Myanmar is essential to the improvement of existing connectivity provision. It is important to maximise the opportunities offered by Myanmar’s strategic position to facilitate cross-border connectivity and capacity trading with Myanmar’s neighbouring countries. Moderator: Carlos Clemente, Senior Investment Officer, IFC

Julian Rawle, VP Business Development & Marketing, CAMPANADavid Goldstein, Senior Adviser, TPG CAPITALSupoj Mahapan, Managing Director, International Carrier and Alliance Management, TRUE CORPORATION

4:15PM COFFEE AND NETWORKING BREAK

3:15PM PANEL DISCUSSION: CO-OPERATION FOR FINANCIAL INCLUSION - DELIVERING MOBILE FINANCIAL SERVICES ACROSS MYANMAR In an emerging market, where high levels of mobile ownership collide with very low financial inclusion, mobile financial services have the potential to generate profit, reduce the gender gap in access to financial services and lift communities out of poverty. Myanmar has seen various mobile financial services offerings emerge over the last couple of years and it is shaping up to become quite a competitive market.

4:55PM PANEL DISCUSSION: IMPROVING POWER PLAY – WHERE ENERGY AND TELECOMS MEET Power supply is a fundamental prerequisite for telecoms infrastructure development, above all for data centres and towercos, which are heavily dependent on reliable power supplies. They are currently using on-grid power supplies and diesel –powered generators. In an attempt to improve the environmental impact of infrastructure development, it is important to investigate alternative energy resources.

10:35AM PRESENTATION: LALAKY! – MYANMAR FILM STREAMING FOR MYANMAR PEOPLE

Min Swe Hlaing, Group Managing Director, GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES

11:15AM PANEL DISCUSSION: DOES THE TELECOMS INDUSTRY HAVE A CONSCIENCE? EXPLORING THE IMPACT OF INCREASING CONNECTIVITY ON SOCIETY It has been said that in Myanmar the internet is Facebook and Facebook is the internet. Facebook is used by Myanmar people for news, trade, social networking, business growth and research. This creates connectivity and information opportunities and but also challenges, particularly in the absence of regulations on cyber security and data protection, low digital literacy, and risks of ‘fake news’ and hate speech.

Moderator: Vicky Bowman, Director, MYANMAR CENTRE FOR RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS

Jes Kaliebe, CEO, PHANDEEYAR Min Thu Aung, Head of Business Sustainability, TELENOR MYANMAR

1:45PM START-UP SHOWCASE: A FORCE FOR GOOD: INNOVATIVE ENTREPRENEURS AND THEIR SOCIALLY-CONSCIOUS PROJECTS Home-grown and international entrepreneurs alike are driving the digital explosion and giving Myanmar people a reason to use the Internet by developing local content which fulfils societal needs, as well as having a socially conscious raison d’être.

2:30PM PANEL DISCUSSION: BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE TALENT POOL – DEVELOPING AND RETAINING SKILLED WORKERS IN THE TELECOMS SECTOR The focus thus far has been on rolling out mobile connectivity for digital inclusion across Myanmar and building data usage to allow people to benefit from the many opportunities provided by the Internet. With the recent announcement of the Myanmar Investment Commission permitting foreign capital investment in education, we now need to play catch-up improving digital skills amongst local employees and examining how corporate culture can play a part in career progression opportunities and employee loyalty.
