This year, MetTel was proud to welcome customers, partners, and industry leaders to our Innovation Summit in Texas for several days of collaboration, insight, and forward-thinking discussions around the future of technology.
Hosted by Lori Thomas, SVP of Strategic Engagement & Transformation, the event brought together technology innovators and business leaders to explore topics including AI, networking, security, digital transformation, and business resilience. Attendees heard from keynote speakers Andrew McAfee and Gary Foote, who shared powerful perspectives on innovation, leadership, and what it takes to compete in an increasingly connected world.
Beyond the keynotes, the Summit created opportunities for meaningful conversations through customer panels, partner discussions, and peer networking, allowing attendees to exchange ideas, share real-world experiences, and discuss the challenges and opportunities shaping their organizations.
A special thank you to our customers, speakers, partners, and everyone who helped make this year's Innovation Summit a success.
We enjoyed every conversation and look forward to continuing them in the months ahead.
A hospital elevator phone stops working during an emergency.
A retail security alarm fails during an outage.
A fire alarm panel is still running on aging copper infrastructure scheduled for retirement.
These aren’t future problems. They’re happening now as carriers continue phasing out traditional copper networks across the U.S.
During National Safety Month, it’s important for organizations to understand how many critical safety systems still rely on outdated communications infrastructure and how copper shutdown can directly impact safety, compliance, and business continuity.
MetTel is hiring! We're looking for talented people who thrive in a fast-moving, team-focused environment.
Across sales, engineering, operations, customer success, and beyond, we’re expanding as our teams continue helping organizations modernize how they connect and operate.
