What if the future of computing was something you held in your hand?
The question isn't entirely academic. There are parts of the world where a mobile phone will, in the near future, be the computing platform of choice among large numbers of consumers. In parts of Asia and Scandinavia, this evolution is already underway. That suggests that the real question is not what is the future of mobile but what role are you going to play in that future?
SOFCON 2008 -The Mobile Future is the conference that can help you answer this question. It brings together industry experts and academics to explore the background, current status of, and evolving opportunities emerging in the mobile communications industry.
What are the Issues? What do consumers want? How can providers deliver it? What obstacles must be cleared? What partnerships make sense? What grand challenges need to be solved? How can Silicon Valley help close the gap with the rest of the world? Where should investors, creators, and customers of the mobile industry place their bets?
Who are the Participants? Everyone from industry experts and pundits to leading researchers and academics. Join us for an exciting day of interactive discussions that will offer a framework for the mobile future and pointers for creators, investors, and customers on where the best opportunities will be found.
SOFCON 2008 - The Mobile Future! 25 great companies, 2 great universities, 25 panelists, 300 attendees, 1 day.
