telecommunications conference title
This will be a title of a telecommunications event. I was thinking along the lines of a 3 for 1 business, but can't seem to get it right. I'm open to suggestions.

3-in-1 business
Not sure, but if it is telecommunications they are probably talking about: voice telephony, internet, entertainment.
In any case, 3-in-1 gives an impression of combining, better than three for one.
It is also a well-known phrase from the old oil brand.

Telecom Business: the three fundamentals
Just a stab in the dark. More context would help us provide more relevant answers. (For example, are we talking about people being recruited to operate businesses out of their homes? Or are representatives of large established firms attending the event? Etc.
Suerte.

This suggestion plays off the commonly used (marketing) language of "two (for the price of) one" :-)

Perhaps "three (services) in one: bundling is best"
"Bundling" is becoming a real buzz word in the US. In fact, this is the term that Qwest uses here in New Mexico. :-)

ONE business that's worth THREE
If I'm not mistaken they are trying to say that the one single business is worth the equivalent of three. In that case, make emphasis on the ONE and then on the THREE. ONE with the value of THREE... Just a couple of ideas. Good luck
