companies, startups, and other interested parties to show off solutions to
closing the global connectivity gap, and for researchers to present their findings
on the effectiveness and effects of so-called "zero rating" and
"equal rating" strategies.</span><span style='font-size:9.5pt'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
