We are delighted to announce that the 8th CRU World Optical Fibre & Cable Conference will be hosted by Prysmian Group in Milan on 7-9 November. The event will give leaders of the optical fibre and cable sector the chance to address peers on the role that the industry will play in the global recovery. With the pandemic changing our everyday life, and the way we do business, it has also accelerated the trends towards connected lifestyles that rely on strong communications networks. Optical fiber and cable will be at the core of these trends. CRU World Optical Fibre & Cable provides the perfect setting for industry thought leaders to discuss such challenges and to look for resolutions or alternative ways forward. The conference is also the perfect springboard to present ideas, technological innovations and improved sustainable practices which will help the industry to continually evolve, adapt and grow despite future challenges. At CRU we see a very bright future for the industry, one that is poised for healthy and sustainable growth for the next five years at the very least. Join us in Milan this November to discuss future trends and gain access to senior decision-makers from the world's leading producers; and to meet and do business with consumers and service providers from across the global supply chain.
