With only three weeks to go before Mobilize 09, it’s a great time for entrepreneurs to mark their calendars. Why? The growth of mobile data from $23 billion to $45 billion in revenues in two years is reason enough for tech entrepreneurs to get their brains into gear. And if that’s not a strong enough incentive, here are nine more reasons:
- Design a startup for future markets, not present ones. The best way to get informed on options is to attend Mobilize 09.
- You’ve worked hard to create your app. Now monetize it — learn strategies for better ROI.
- Should you develop for just one platform? What other distribution models are there? Check out the app storefront panel.
- See the man behind the Facebook /Twitter phone, Frank Meehan of INQ. The mobile industry is inspired; you will be, too.
- Create better products — not all disruptive technologies are invented in a flash of inspiration. See the methods used by the best innovators.
- The VC Panel — before you shop your idea around, make sure that people are investing in it. You have an elevator pitch, right?
- Netbooks are just small, cheap laptops right? WRONG! They’re key to the future of mobility.
- Meet other people like you! You never know — the next-billion dollar deal could be seeded over lunch at Mobilize 09.
- The Launchpad — Come be inspired, cheer on or network with the debutantes of the mobile world.
