How does an internet service provider in New York City, where two centuries of overlapping underground infrastructure offers a nearly unnavigable labyrinth of cables and pipes, deliver fast and reliable connectivity?
Join Mike Egbert (VP, Sales and Real Estate at Pilot) and Noah Landow (Founder and CEO at Macktez) for an informal conversation between a leading Technology Solutions Firm and the largest, local Internet Service Provider in Manhattan, as they talk about the successes and challenges of connecting businesses across NYC, from hair-thin fiber optic cables under the streets of New York to wiring up 1400 ft. skyscrapers.
Mike spent time in the proverbial trenches at Cablevision before Pilot, going from an organization much maligned by customers for its service to the opposite extreme — A rare breed of internet service provider whose customers actually like them.
Join us at the Macktez office, after work, over light snacks and sips, for an exploratory conversation covering a wide range of topics from the importance of building a smart and resilient fiber network, differentiating yourself in a saturated and commoditized space, creating an amazing customer experience as an ISP, and some stunning stories about the perverse challenges of NYC streets, conduits, and pathways.
