Avaya has contracted the Madison Group to lobby the federal government. According to the Associated Press they will lobby on patent and phone isseus like VoIP and 911.
Last year Avaya has been aquired by investment firms TPG Capital and Silver Lake. Avaya holds a lot of patents which the new owners may be trying to protect, and patent applications they want to get granted. And Avaya – as a big player in the IP telephony market – of course wants to protect their interest as the FCC continues to roll out more VoIP regulations.
