We sit down with William Rubio to unpack what’s actually changing in cloud communications and what a managed service provider needs to deliver in 2026: not just licenses, but outcomes across UCaaS, CCaaS and AI.We talk through Call Tower’s evolution and the recent strategic investment from Court Square Capital Partners, including how growth, global expansion and M&A fit into a fast-moving market.
