Joint Event with SVASE
“Mobility – Opportunities in Digital Convergence”
Venue:
With the advent of wireless as an enabler for mobility the user experience becomes more complex as internet access can be achieved via Wifi, WiMAX cellular and other infrastructures with devices that can accommodate all, and the users who demand to smoothly roam among these networks locally and internationally.
Wireless Convergence is still the magic word in the mobile arena. There are many interpretations to Convergence. For carriers it means transparent roaming among wireless and wire line networks; Device vendors’ interpretation is "the Swiss army knife" of the mobile consumer, such as the iPhone = iPOD and cellular phone; another interpretation for conversion might be one location to store all your information and access it from any mobile device.
Where is all this headed?
Our experienced and opinionated panelists will explore the topic of Digital Convergence in a Mobile World and explore opportunity for entrepreneurs and startups in this huge emerging market including:
- What is YOUR definition of Convergence?
- What services will change from wireless to fixed networks and vice versa?
- What opportunities do you see for entrepreneurs from the recent deployments and developments in voice roaming between mobile and fixed?
- What opportunities do you see for entrepreneurs from the recent deployments and developments in data roaming between mobile and fixed?
- What opportunities do you see for entrepreneurs from the recent deployments in devices toward Convergence?
- What opportunities do you see for entrepreneurs from the recent deployments and developments in cellular / DSL / cable Convergence?
