Mobile SVG Event in NYC

The MobileMonday NY committee, Antoine Quint of SVG.org, Scott Weiss of Usable Products and Dan Appelquist of Vodafone and MobileMonday London are happy to invite you to the Rich Mobile Experiences with SVG event held in New York City on January 29th.

This event has been set up to provide an exhaustive overview of the Mobile SVG ecosystem with a strong selection of leaders in the field -- Sun Microsystems, Qualcomm, Vodafone, Ikivo, Opera, BitFlash and Beatware -- coming together to present their solutions and visions around Mobile SVG.

Speakers will update you on everything relevant to this key rich mobile technology including authoring solutions, deployed and live services, integration in application platforms (J2ME, Brew, Symbian), user interfaces design, mobile browsing, etc. A closing panel and Q&A session, followed by a networking reception, will allow you to take part in the discussion and get answers to real-world problems related to creating rich mobile experiences with SVG.

The main event will run from 3pm to 8pm, followed by the reception, on Monday January 29th at the Samsung Experience in the Time Warner Center near Central Park. Registration is completely free and already open on our Upcoming.org page. There is limited seating, so take the time to register now.

Jan 15: Registration Now Open

Registration is now open for our next meeting, on the 15th of January, hosted by Wireless World Forum (with reception sponsored by Nokia). The venue is the CBI conference centre at Centrepoint.

The theme for the evening will be 'Bubble 2.0?' We will feature a panel of experts grappling with questions about the current boom in the startup markup (particularly focused on mobile startups). Is the current boom sustainable? Panelists will include Azeem Azhar (Reuters), Martin Fiennes (Clarity Capital Partners), Madhuban Kumar (Doughty Hanson Technology Ventures) and Sam Sethi (Vecosys).

We will also feature a number of demos from mobile startups in the run-up to the Mobile Monday Global Peer Awards happening in Barcelona next month at 3GSM.
