 Welcome to ITU Telecom World 2019 in Budapest, Hungary. We're very pleased to be joined in the studio today and Mr Petros Galides, who is Deputy Commissioner of Electronic Communications and Postal Regulation for Cyprus. Mr Galides, welcome to the studio. Glad to be here with you. Now I'd like to start off by talking about innovating together, connectivity that matters. Is this event's theme, what does it mean to you? Meaningful connectivity, which is the theme of this event. Means, first of all, connectivity has to be accessible, accessible to all. It needs to be affordable. And after that, it needs to be functional, fit for purpose, and easy to use for users. That's the purpose. To be really meaningful, those need to be complimented by the appropriate digital skills that will complete the picture and make connectivity truly meaningful. Through meaningful connectivity, people will be enabled. Women, young people, people in remote areas, people with disabilities, everybody will be able to contribute, improving the standard, the quality of living, bringing everybody into the economy and society. Thus making connectivity really meaningful. Let's talk a little bit about 5G. How is 5G going to be deployed in Cyprus? Our providers are already incorporating a lot of 5G in their strategy plans. A public consultation has already started, and will be completed by the end of this month, hopefully. And probably early 2020, the auction of the spectrum will start. On a grand scale, as Cyprus, we are collaborating very closely with other countries, and with partnering also, private and public sector, to bring in the benefits of this very exciting new development to Cyprus as soon as possible. The ITU Regional Innovation Forum will take place next year in Cyprus. What will it be its key focus and aims, do you think? The key focus will be the development of a nicety-centric world. It's a bit early to go into detail to that, because we're only at the starting point of organising it. Cyprus, as you probably know, already organised the Cybertrail in 2018. European Cybertrail, indeed. How did that go? What were the main takeaways from that? Looking back, we think it's been very successful for all involved. We're talking about more than 200 participants from 15 or so countries. It was very successful and productive. In my mind, the main takeaway was that it's impressive and promising that the private sector organisations from the private sector work so closely with government cyber security advisers to help ensure we have a secure cyber world. Those two events, of course, are indicative of a very good collaboration developing between Cyprus and the ITU. Beyond that, we have very good collaboration regarding development, education, standardisation, cyber security, many aspects that we work very closely and productively with the ITU. I also wanted to ask you, what's the value for you of attending events such as ITU, Telecom, World? The value is immeasurable. One of the most important things is that you get to listen and be exposed to different experiences. That's the most crucial thing. Even if most people here are leaders in their fields, one could say they know everything about their field, but listening, even to the same things, even to things they know, to people describing them or looking at them from a different perspective, coming from different experiences, different problems that even if we think we know everything, other people face problems we could never imagine. The creative solutions, they found to them. So all in all, the most important thing, we all learn something new every time, nobody knows everything, but the most important part is being exposed to the different perspectives. So bringing together people from very diversified backgrounds, different countries, different organisations is the most important aspect, and I would like to congratulate the ITU and the Secretary General for making this possible and for being a catalyst to bringing people of such diverse backgrounds together. For instance, with the Secretary General's initiative, people from Asia and Africa came together, met together, together with European countries. So I was there as well. I was exposed to different experiences. I was able to meet people and get to know people. Those people might one day refer to me and ask, what have you done with this problem? What do you think? All vice versa. I may end up asking them from your perspective, but we're stuck here. It was wonderful. That's very useful. Well, thank you very much for joining us in the studio. It's been a great catching up with you here, and hopefully you will take back some of these experiences with you, which I'm sure you will, and we'll catch up with you again in the near future. Absolutely. Thank you very much. Thank you very much indeed.
