Connection. What does that word mean to you? It's an essential desire that drives action, progress, and innovation. After food and shelter, we are all searching for ways to connect authentically with one another. Out of this need for connection, the modern world has developed with massive infrastructure that enables us to share ideas in more ways and with more people than ever before. The benefits of modern connectivity are well known and numerous, but we can take it for granted like it's just there. But what's behind it all? With Tower Side Chat™, we will explore just that. Join our expert hosts as we go on a journey - taking complex topics and breaking them down in easy-to-understand, delightful ways. We will examine the technologies at work around us and discuss what the future may hold. We'll talk to everyone from engineers and product designers to tower technicians who ensure everything is safe and functioning at height. We'll also talk to industry veterans and academics about the potential of these new technologies - we'll be able to grasp what currently is - to help us have a perspective of what may come next. © Valmont Telecommunications Inc.
