NASSAU, Bahamas -- Cable Bahamas Head of Marketing David Burrows was appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Caribbean Cable Telecommunication Association (CCTA) at their annual meeting held in San Juan, Puerto Rico in January. The appointment of Mr Burrows follows his six years of serving on the board, and the past year as vice-chair of the board.
The CCTA, formed in 1983, is comprised of 109 member organisations, including 18 cable operators -- of which Cable Bahamas is one -- and 91 programmers (signal suppliers), hardware and software suppliers from around the world.
Upon taking the chair in January, Mr Burrows spoke to the members of the CCTA about his vision and goals for the non-profit association during his tenure, drawing on the mission and purpose of the CCTA for inspiration.
"It is vital that we focus our efforts on growth and education among our members," Mr Burrows stated. "As our members become even better equipped and informed about new technologies, trends and better business practices, their individual operations will grow and our effectiveness as a regional body will be increased."
One of the most critical issues facing the Caribbean region cable industry is a lack of awareness and understanding of the burden of excessive regulation in the face of rising costs of services.
