This year’s agenda is jam-packed with thought-provoking sessions, speakers and activities that cover everything from artificial intelligence to text to Toll-Free. With so many exciting things planned, we thought we’d highlight five can’t-miss sessions at #TFUS18.

1. Signature Conversation with Jay Schwarz, Advisor to Chairman Pai of the FCC
    Modernizing the Toll-Free Number industry has been a chief priority for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Whether it’s ensuring the integrity of texting over Toll-Free Numbers or allowing for assignment of Toll-Free Numbers through competitive bidding, the FCC has been working tirelessly to promote a vibrant, efficient and trustworthy Toll-Free ecosystem. Join this session as Jay Schwarz discusses a wide range of topics from Chairman Pai’s agenda.
2. Keynote Speaker Blake Morgan
    Customer Experience Futurist Blake Morgan has a simple message for anyone looking to propel their organization forward: More is more!

Find out how you can differentiate yourself in the competitive marketplace and have more meaningful conversations – over Toll-Free! – with your customers.
3. Signs of the Future with Google’s Contact Center AI
   What does Artificial Intelligence (AI) mean for the future of the contact center? Join us during this feature presentation from Shantanu Misra, Product Manager at Google to find out!

4. The Next Generation Contact Center 
    Consumers have come to expect more from their interactions with brands; they want speed, convenience and the human touch.
