Recognising the drivers of telecom in India

As India's leading and the first telecom industry magazine, Voice&Data has been chronicling the journey of the telecom ecosystem in India since the first telecom policy was announced to open up the sector. The publication has been an industry voice, actively highlighting its achievements, underlining the challenges and advocating for policy updates and changes, playing an independent role of the fourth pillar to drive and influence factors of growth. The CyberMedia Group publication has also been motivating the industry to do more, better and innovate by recognising the leaders and trailblazers.

Keeping up with its tradition, the magazine hosted the 22nd Telecom Leadership Forum (TLF), including the V&D Telecom Leadership Award for 2022. The Telecom Person of the Awards for 2022 was conferred upon the enablers of Made in India 4G Stack jointly to Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Centre for Development of Telematics or C-DoT, Tejas Networks, and BSNL.
