 Welcome to ITU Telecom World 2018 here in Durban, South Africa where I am very pleased to be joined in the studio today by Henny Ventner who is the Chief Executive of GEW Technologies. Mr Ventner thank you for joining us in the studio. Thank you for having me. Now I'd like to talk a bit, perhaps we can just start a little bit by talking about GEW Technologies, what are you involved in and what brings you here? GEW for sure we are in different areas also defence but more important for this event, spectrum management and spectrum monitoring are very important to us and that's the reason for us being here. Now in terms of smart digital development which is the key phrase that's being banded about here, I just wanted to find out what does it mean to you and how is GEW working towards it? Smart digital development for sure moves us all into this exciting fourth industrial revolution. Taken into account telecoms regulators at this point needs to be very innovative in terms of allocating new spectrum to enable them for this technology advance. And in terms of innovation, what single innovation or innovative technology, product strategy or policy do you think is most transformative? It's maybe a range on a strategy side where nowadays real-time information of distributed remote sensors, monitoring receivers, processing big data, analytics with that. Also on the e licensing spectrum side very important and that's a transformative action by regulators to make sure going into future to say there's a different way of how to allocate spectrum and reallocate that in real-time. Now let's talk about spectrum management. What's the role of spectrum management systems in Africa and how is GW contributing and celebrating it's like it's half century in the field? Spectrum management it's a crucial role especially in developing countries of advancing this digital era. Specifically in Africa there's a lot of new technologies on the spectrum management side that can influence the outcome and certain African regulators needs to take up this spectrum management innovation like online systems, web portals, e licensing, online type approvals and that will enhance the African regulators bringing the technology in. What I maybe can add at that point GW spectrum management and monitoring solutions is also in use by our own regulator ICASA and we welcome all African regulators to implement solutions designed, developed, engineered, manufactured in Africa for Africa. Talking about African regulators I'm sure you'll be meeting quite a few here at the event. What's the value of attending events such as ITU Telecom Worldview? The value of attending ITU GW as a long-standing member of the ITU appreciate these events. It is not just about getting more information or interacting with industry leaders and our customers or stakeholders but it's also creating that awareness of the new technology the era moving into the fourth industrial revolution and for us being part of that we enjoy the discussions and the forums on spectrum spectrum more spectrum with keeping in mind the World Radio Conference 2019. Now we've got quite a diverse audience watching this I just want to find out is there a message that perhaps you'd like to convey to them? In terms of a GW Henselt company we're also celebrating our 50th year of existence. We're consistently innovating and this is also invitation to leaders, policymakers and regulators to come and join us tomorrow at 5 p.m. for an event in terms of celebrating our success with the ITU. Any event thank you very much indeed. Thank you very much.
