Join the most influential investors, mobile industry executives, entrepreneurs, press and analysts at MobileBeat 2009 for one day of in-depth discussion, debate and power networking, held on July 16 at the Parc 55 Hotel in San Francisco. MobileBeat will focus on apps: the people who use them, the people who make them, and the people who fund them. MobileBeat will also have a Top Startup competition and is actively soliciting submissions from startups younger than 3 years old and in two categories. These companies will get to pitch in front of a high-level audience: some 400 top mobile executives from startups and larger companies, venture capital firms, publishers, media, device makers and OS platforms. Startups can submit to be chosen for the competition here. Deadline for submission is July 1. Companies will be notified if they qualify on July 6.
