Since my last article about ECI Telecom, the company has gone private. The question I am sure you are wondering about is how has this move changed the outlook for the company if at all and moreover what is ECI up to today?

Thankfully, your questions will be answered as this podcast interview with Laura Howard the company's CMO will keep you up to date on how ECI Telecom is evolving from a product to a solutions company. In addition, you get to learn how ECI has separated itself from many of the larger players in the telecom space and how they are navigating the international markets for communications equipment.

Another thing you'll learn is how ECI has broadened out its portfolio and isn't just an optical-only player these days. In addition, this podcast will explain how the company views next-gen video, voice and IP and how it helps solve problems for service providers.

Finally, you'll learn about how wireless backhaul has been a hot growth area for ECI and moreover where other telecom opportunities lie.

Service providers will get a great glimpse (or should that be "listen?" ) at what they should be concerned about as Howard gives unique global and real-world perspective on how ECI Telecom helps providers achieve their goals in a number of geographically disperse markets.
