I caught up with Mitel's SVP of Global Technical Operations, Peter Polizzi, last week to talk about Mitel's efforts with pro sports teams around the world. Their efforts include a league-wide effort with Major League Baseball, a handful of UK soccer teams and a recently announced goal scored with the NHL's Los Angeles Kings. What … Read more
