Baku, February 6 (AZERTAC). BakuTel, the largest telecommunications exhibition in the Caspian and Caucasus regions, will take place on 23-26 November in Baku Expo Centre. The exhibition benefits from the support of the Ministry of Communication and Information Technologies of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
Among BakuTel’s regular exhibitors are major domestic and international manufacturers and distributors, telecoms operators and service companies. As in previous years, BakuTel will include a conference – “Telecommunications and Information Technologies” – organised by the Ministry of Communication and Information Technologies of the Republic of Azerbaijan. The conference will take place in the conference hall of the Hyatt Regency hotel on 24 November.
This year, the date of the annual BakuTel exhibition has been timed to coincide with the anniversary of communications in Azerbaijan. 130 years ago, the Nobel brothers installed the first telephone line in Baku and, since then, Azerbaijan has continued to develop the telecoms industry.
