UK VoIP Gains Own Trade Association
Posted: 18th Mar, 2004 By: MarkJ
UK Voice-over-IP (VoIP) providers, thirteen to be exact, have setup their own trade association - The Internet Telephony Service Providers Association (ITSPA):
Thirteen UK companies have come together to form the Internet Telephony Service Providers Association (ITSPA) to lobby the UK Government and communications regulator, Ofcom, as well the European Commission and other regulators.
ITSPA is also keen to encourage the innovation and development of the Internet telephony industry through the promotion of self-regulation and competition.
Internet telephony lets users make voice calls over any Internet connection, particularly broadband, using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). In many cases it can provide cheaper telephony compared to traditional services, with calls to other Internet phones often free of charge.
Interestingly BT is not among the thirteen, in fact the only groups we're able to recognise are Mistral Internet, Call UK and Telco Global. More @ The Register.
