Upcoming Mobile Conferences
Just wanted to highlight a few upcoming mobile conferences. There are many conferences of course, but these are a few that are not too far from Seattle and ones that I’d love to attend…
- Mobilize 08 – Sept 18, San Francisco. This conference focuses on the “mobile web (of) today and tomorrow”. Organized by Silicon Valley elder Om Malik, this is a one-day event that has a particularly strong industry/VC/startup influence (Om is an ex-VC). Great stuff at this one: wide representation including Google Android, Yahoo, Symbian, Cisco, and Adaptive Path.
- Mobile2.0 2008: Nov 1, San Francisco. A one-day event focused on the future of mobile – what is converging, what new services/features are on the horizon, what we need to be thinking about regarding dev and UX, etc. I’ve heard great things about it and am (hopefully) attending this year. Registration is tentatively scheduled to open by end of August on the site.
- CTIA Wireless 2009: April 1-3, Las Vegas Convention Center. This is one of the biggest mobile/wireless conventions in the world. Pulls in 40k+ people, with reps from just about every part of the industry (device manufacturers, carriers, developers, etc.) I haven’t been before, but it has always sounded like it was the wireless version of the annual CES – 3 full days to geek out on mobile technology.
