2010 Opportunities - What’s in it for you?

Only rarely in business and technology ventures is there a focused effort to look several years into the future and have a guarantee that great opportunities await. For our local wireless companies, the 2010 Olympics hosted here at home, provides us with just that opportunity.

From a mobile perspective, 2010 is also a magical destination where the integrated capacity of emerging Devices, Networks and Applications (the "DNA" of mobility) will offer a significantly new threshold on the mobile experience.

WINBC’s April MoMoVan brings together leading representatives of the mobile D, N and A universes to explore with you what this new environment and its opportunities might look like.

Hear what our industry experts have to say about opportunities and challenges as they relate to the 2010 Olympics.

Join us to learn:

• Insight into mobile devices, networks, and application opportunities
• What types of DNA will dominate the 2010 games
• Company partnering opportunities
