ABP invites all telecom, IT, networking and data resellers as well as specialists in wireless and Video over IP to join us. IP Sizzles is a 360 degree experience for the reseller to fine tune a strategy to future proof the business.

You will meet industry leaders like Mark Spencer from Digium, Rich Tehrani from TMC, many leading resellers and ABP's team. The top themes for IP Sizzles 2007 are "Mobility with Wireless VoIP" featuring Wi-Fi, DECT and GSM and "Making money with IP Communications".

ABP is very excited to announce the return of Rich Tehrani and Mark Spencer as the keynote speakers for this year's IP Sizzles.

RichTehrani is an IP Communications industry expert, visionary, author and columnist. He founded the first magazine focused on VoIP in 1998 and, as President of TMC, is the owner of the registered trademark for the term Internet Telephony. In 1999, Tehrani launched Internet Telephony Conference & Expo and has watched it grow into the best attended VoIP show in the world. Tehrani is also the founder of TMCnet, the most popular communications/technology portal in the world. More recently he launched TMC's newest title, IMS Magazine. Rich will be giving the first Keynote of the IP Sizzles on Tuesday morning.

Mark Spencer founded Linux Support Services in 1999 while still a Computer Engineering student at Auburn University. When faced with the high cost of buying a PBX, Mark simply used his Linux PC and knowledge of C code to write his own! This was the beginning of the world-wide phenomenon known as Asterisk, the open source PBX, and caused Mark to shift his business focus from Linux support to supporting Asterisk and opening up the telecom market. Linux Support Services is now known as Digium, and is bringing open source to the telecom market while gaining a foothold in the telecom industry.

Mark is now CTO and Chairman of the Board of Digium, Inc. He will be giving an industry update about Asterisk and where things are heading.

After a full day of keynotes, presentations, panel discussions and workshops, your braincould probably use a rest from all the exciting ideas and information you have received. What better way to do it than having an exhilarating car rase with your fellow resellers?

ABP has planned an offsite dinner on Tuesday, July 24, 2007 at Malibu Speedzone at 7:30 PM. Relax and enjoy all the fun that Speedzone has to offer - maybe getting your adrenaline running at the race tracks, showing off your game skills in the arcade or just mingling with other resellers while enjoying a cold drink.
