MPLS WC 2023 Showcase
Welcome to our MPLS SD & AI Net World (also known as MPLS World Congress) Video Showcase! The conference is organized by our friends at Upperside Conferences, and has been running for 24 years (amazing). We captured video snippets from thought leaders at the Palais des Congrès de Paris. See what they have to share about the show and the latest in SR-v6, SR-MPLS, converged IP/optical routing, network automation, network-as-a-service and much more.
Next year's conference (the 25th Edition) will be held in the Palais des Congrès de Paris from 9th to 11th of April 2024 and promises to be even more successful than this year's. Please contact our friends at Upperside Conferences to register your interest ([email protected]). See you all there!
BTW, for those at the show who heard about the launch of our New Middle Mile report, you can download it here — and check out relevant videos too.
