Telecom Council of Silicon Valley - Mobile broadband event at AT&T Labs in San Jose Nov. 6

On behalf of stephanie owyoung, stephanie at kertongroup.com and the Telecom Councial of Silicon Valley, here's a repost of mobile broadband event.
 
Connect, communicate, and collaborate at the Telecom Council of
Silicon Valley's Mobile Forum meeting: Opportunities in Broadband.

Date: November 6th, 5-7:30pm
Location: AT&T Labs in San Jose
Event
website: http://guest. cvent.com/ EVENTS/Info/ Summary.aspx? e=ab7bdee0- 8a27-47ab- 942d-2495e5e4d24 0

Event Description:
The age of pervasive Internet is upon us. With Sprint's launch of
Xohm, not to mention exisiting 3G HSPA and EV-DO networks and
upcoming LTE networks, there are increasing options for mobile
connectivity. Price per megabyte is dropping fast as the result of
better technology, and increased competition, and we've seen the
first example of CE with bundled broadband in the Amazon Kindle.

But what are the opportunities that this pervasive broadband open up?
Laptops, MIDs, and other CE will be constantly connected, most likely
with location-aware data plans. The Telecom Council believes that
these target devices have been largely overlooked, as companies are
focused on the more familiar scenario of phone handsets. But although
they share an OS, mobile connected laptops are NOT the same as PCs.
We've seen web companies morph into mobile with handset strategies,
but what shape will their mobile laptop strategies take? Landing
pages? Redirects with LBS portals? Location-enabled banner ads? Some
kind of gaming? "Dialer" software that tells a user how much usage
they have, real time costs, etc? How does Web 2.0 and cloud computing
figure into erratic wireless networks? Let's run these ideas up the
flag post, and see who salutes.

Our meetings will feature a concrete discussion of the wireless
technologies and the devices that will carry the experience to the
consumers of 2009-2010 with our panel of experts and important
companies in this sector. But we'll also move on to the fertile
discussion areas of pricing models, and then services and
applications for this new breed of "terminal". To paraphrase Pulp
Fiction
: "Does a person in a train or coffee shop on a laptop look
like a PC user sitting at their desk?… So why you wanna treat `em
that way?

For this meeting, we'll hear from companies leading this sector and
from the innovators that will revolutionize the way people use
wireless and mobile broadband. As always expect some demos!

To keep this meeting interactive, our capacity is limited to 50
people. We encourage you to register early if you have a lot to
contribute to or draw from this discussion. This event is free for
Telecom Council members, and open to non-members for $200.

MoMo and the Mobile Web 2.0 2008 at the Hyatt Union Square Nov. 3 in San Franciscso

Hey folks,
I just got off the phone with the other organizers of the Mobile
2.0 event, and we now have a full agenda posted up on the site:

http://mobile2event .com/

This year we've added a builders track, something that Dan and I
worked on together. It's meant to provide a set of topics and
presentations more geared toward the engineering and technical side of
the house.

Registration is open, and we've worked hard to keep it one of the
least expensive events while still providing high quality interaction.
Here's the full announcement:

-----------

YES, due to popular demand, we are once again teaming up with
MobileMondays Silicon Valley, Barcelona and Helsinki to bring you :
Mobile 2.0, a one-day event focusing on new Mobile Applications and
Services, the Mobile Web and Disruptive Mobile Innovation.

The event will once again be taking place at the Grand Hyatt off of
San Francisco's Union Square.

Don't take my word for it, read about what some others have said about
our previous events:

http://weblog. cenriqueortiz. com/mobility/ 2007/10/16/ the-mobile- 20-event- a-quick-summary/
http://wapreview. com/blog/ ?p=415
http://www.readwrit eweb.com/ archives/ mobile_20_ 7th_mass_ media_business_ opportunities. php

This year promises to be even more exciting with participants from
across the spectrum: T-Mobile, Vodafone, Facebook, Myspace, Google,
Yahoo!, Fjord, Nokia, Admob, GetJar, Accel, Norwest, Opera, Symbian,
Mozilla. And that's just for starters!

See the full announced speaker list on http://mobile2event .com

We're also trying something slightly different this year: running a
"builder track" in the afternoon, along-side our regular business
track, that will focus on hands-on mobile development, user experience
and design.

This year's sponsors include Forum Nokia, Taptu and Mippin as well as
the Open Mobile Terminal Platform, and Access, and the Event is run in
partnership with AMF Ventures.

Registration is now open, so reserve your seat today by visiting
http://mobile2event .com

------------ ----

Hope to see you there!
- Mike
This is a great event, I have participated in previous events and can recommend this one for sure.

Feel like doing a public presentation and like speaking about tech stuff in the communications area, then apply for a speaking slot at the next eComm conference.
 
Information from the Mobile Monday group;

The 1st Emerging Communications (eComm) conference held back in March
this year was the first conference to cover both Android and the
iPhone. The 2nd Emerging Communications conference also promises to
break new ground. These are not hollow marketing words - stay tuned to
the event (Facebook group here
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=26125226168 and blog here:
http://ecommconf.com/blog).

The call for speakers went out last Friday - please see http://eCommConf.com

The word on the street is that it is set to be THE communications
event of 2009 - here is some of the latest blog posts mentioning the
event:

CALL FOR SPEAKERS

Emerging Communications Conference (eComm 2009),
Burlingame, California –
March 3-5, 2009

http://www.eCommConf.com


This isn't a traditional telecom conference. The eComm audience has
very high expectations of speakers. They are both seizing
opportunities of the post telecom era (or reinventing traditional
products and services) and can engage the audience. Rules include a
ban on "brochure speak" from stage (overt marketing pitches) and a
strict enforcement of the clock.

Plenary presentations lasts just 15 minutes including 2-3 minutes of
Q+A. We've found this format of carefully prepared presentations keeps
the atmosphere charged. This format also helps us to fit in more than
70 speakers over 3 days. Thanks to the intimate feel of the venue and
the energy and attention of the audience, many speakers find it to be
a a great public speaking experience.

It's expected that most speakers stay for all three days of the
conference. They stay to join a conversation with a high caliber
audience containing an exceptional number of the industry influencer's
and thinkers.
Talks can be theoretical, practical, demonstrations or a mixture of all three.

Particular topics of interest for 2009:

* Democratization of communications innovation; anything from VoIP
community, XMPP enabled social networking to DIY 12-volt telephony
* Convergence of the media industry with personal communications
* Theme "telecoms is becoming software"
* Telecom restructuring, threats, or new business models
* Telecom trends, particularly Asian
* iPhone or Android applications
* The new old - traditional carriers or vendors who are changing the game
* Mobile Social Software (MoSoSo) applications on any platform; any
socio- centric devices or applications will be considered whether
mobile or not
* Social Computing
* Mobile leveraging of Cloud Computing or Telco in the Cloud
* Future of Social Networking Applications
* Network Equipment Providers plans for next 1-3 years
* Facilitating business processes with voice
* 4G Technologies
* P2P modes of production or networking

Please note that this is a list of topics chosen by the selection
committee, but it is not an all-inclusive list of topics - we like to
keep an open mind.

Feel free to submit multiple presentations on different topics. Talks
on generic subjects can be rejected. Be unique!

Before submitting a talk, please try to include answers to the
following questions:

* How will your talk excite people?
* What do you aim to arouse in the audience?
* What will be said in your talk that has not been conveyed at another
conference?
* Does your talk educate the audience?


Proposals will be considered for the following types of presentations:

* 30 minute keynote
* 15 minute plenary
* 1 hour tutorial (these extended classes give participants hands-on,
practical, in-depth guidance)
* 5 minute "Lightening Talks" (rapid-fire presentations that provide
insight into new technologies, projects, products or services)
* Other


Please include the following information for your proposal:

* Proposed title
* Overview and extended descriptions of the presentation: main idea,
sub topics, conclusion
* Suggested topic
* Speaker(s): expertise and summary biography


Submission deadline. November 17, although the speaking programme is
expected to fill in advance.

Final points. Dress code is casual or business casual. All speakers
will gain FREE entry, will receive an extra FREE ticket and a single
50% discount code to giveaway also. Speakers who have limited budgets
(i.e. academics) may have all or some of their expenses paid by prior
agreement. The selection committee will be looking for evidence that
you are an expert in the topic that you have proposed. Make sure to
leverage your individual or organizational expertise when making your
speaking proposal.
 
 Still have proposal submission questions? Email: Kristi at eCommMedia.com



SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL BY EMAIL:

2009_suggestions at eCommConf.com



(The "Large" Small Print:

If chosen you will be required to:

* Observe the clock - time slots will be enforced - this requirement
is for all and there will be no exceptions.
* We will not allow presentation substitutions on-site.
* Refrain from "brochure speak" (product or marketing pitches) from
stage. The audience is technically minded and averse to being
blatantly pitched.
* Register for the event (short online process) within 2 working days
of receiving a speaking confirmation (full instructions will be
provided) otherwise your presentation may be canceled and/or filled
with another speaker.
* Appear onsite and make oneself known to the delegated Speaker
Caretaker at LEAST one hour before your scheduled talk otherwise your
presentation WILL be canceled and/or filled with another speaker.
* Send in a draft presentation for review two months before the event
and a final version one month before the event.
* Accept that all submissions will be evaluated by the 2009 Advisory
Board. eComm 2009 Sponsorship or Exhibitor participation will not be
considered in the evaluation of submissions, outside of any sponsored
sessions offered in specific packages.)

Winning PV Partnerships:
A Bright Future for the U.S.-German Model


WHEN AND WHERE

During Solarpower Conference
Tuesday, October 14 2008, 12:00pm - 2:00pm

Omni Hotel in Salon DE
675 L Street (and 6th Avenue)
San Diego, CA

WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

Solar markets both in the U.S. and Germany are growing rapidly, but are still very dependent on government subsidies. Both countries offer a very different set of opportunities in leading the way into the future of the PV industry. The U.S. has huge, yet relatively untapped market potential; a wealth of companies developing promising new technologies and proximity to grid-parity in an ever growing number of regions. Germany is home to some of the largest and most sophisticated global PV companies and offers a large, growing and stable market with a reliable support system. Bringing those two together strategically has provided, and will continue to provide, an outstanding recipe for success.

Moderator:
Brian Fan, Senior Director of Research, Cleantech Group

Panelists:

  • Key note speech by Mr. Harald Wolf, Berlin Mayor and Senator for Economics, Technology and Women's Issues
  • Mr. Mike Gering, CEO, Global Solar Energy, Inc.
  • Mr. Lars Podlowski, CTO, Solon AG.
  • Nolan Browne Managing Director, Fraunhofer Center for Sustainable Energy Systems at MIT
  • Mr. Bernd Kohlstruck, Managing Director, Xantrex Germany GmbH.

Goal:
The goal of the event is to foster a fruitful discussion about the benefits of partnering among leaders of the PV industries in the U.S. and in Germany. Specific topics to be discussed will include:

  • Unique advantages the different geographies offer
  • Asymmetric needs of different partners
  • Drivers and barriers for successful partnerships
  • Real-world case studies for managing transatlantic business relationships
Lunch Buffet and drinks will be served.
