Smartphones are now everybody’s darling and the number of users are growing continuously. This makes it an interesting market for device manufacturers and software vendors and all those companies are fighting in the battle for market shares.
Some of the “old heroes” are standing with their backs on the wall and they are teasing the developers to help them create their app ecosystem. Apps are important for particular platforms but at the same time mobile web is getting becoming mature.
Time (again) for MobileMonday to take a look at a hot topic – the burning mobile platform.
So far, we have the following confirmed speakers :
- Dr. Hans-Christoph Quelle – CEO Secusmart
- Marc O. Schmoeger – Project Manager M-Commerce Fressnapf
- Dirk Heitepriem – Government Relations Manager BlackBerry
- Malte Lantin – Technical Evangelist Microsoft
Happy to see you at our event location at Grey – Platz der Ideen

The BYOD movement is truly shaking up IT. Now, more than ever, employees are bringing their own devices to work. Not only that, on average, employees carry more than two devices each. The proliferation of devices and the additional traffic are putting big demands on the corporate network, as well as increasing the risk of data security breaches.
Employees today expect the relevant information they need for work, to be accessible on their mobile device. This is true whether the device is company-issued or a personal one.
The information they need goes far beyond email and PDF files; they want access to real-time data, CRM, and ERP applications, to name a few. Employees also want similar user experiences as well, regardless of the device.
As they see it, the mobile work experience should be no different than if the employee was at a desktop at a company site.
Share fresh insights and lively discussions with our panel of experts at the next MobileMonday.
Agenda:
Discussion objective
Experts will examine the topic “BYOD” from different perspectives and contribute their own business experience and expertise.
The audience will be provided with overview and insights including important aspects w/ decisional relevance.
Happy to see you on board!

Mobile Payment has been all the rage since NFC (Near Field Communication) entered center-stage some 18 months ago at MWC 2011 in Barcelona.
But now, since we are learning that people start to shop around, compare prices and and actually buy things with their mobile hand-sets this trend has become a vital necessity – for users and providers alike.
But who will make the race and win the Mobile Payment Trophy – probably worth Billions of Dollars and Euros? Will it be banks like Sparkasse with their NFC enabled chip-cards? Or Online Payment-Services like Paypal with their proprietary solutions? Or even handset-makers like Apple with a worldwide customer-base of hundreds of million people?
Share fresh insights and lively discussions with our panel of payment-experts at the next MobileMonday.
Some speakers still have to be confirmed:
- Mobile Payments in Germany- State of the Industry & key success factors, Jens Kohnen, PwC
- Sparkassenorganisation, n.n
- …
Nonetheless even today reason enough to dig deeper into the subject at our next MoMo DUS and to Reserve Your Free Seat.
Time: September 3, 2012 from 6pm to 10pm

At first we would like to thank our sponsor:

For a long time, mobile email was the most dominant service delivering perceivable value to the enterprises: Professionals could take mobile device anywhere and have access to their business email and calender whenever and wherever it is needed.
There is no doubt that the value of mobile email is still important today, yet other mobile solutions are emerging for enterprises and smaller businesses that are worth to take a closer look at, such as device management, mobile order management, mobile business intelligence, to name a few.

The next MobileMonday in Düsseldorf will have both speakers from the solution providers camp but also the users of the solution can give their testimonials in their own case.
Our speakers so far:
- Michael Heuer – Akamai
- Sebastian Diehl – Emmas Enkel
- Benno Eiwen – Sigocon
Time: July 2, 2012 from 6pm to 10pm
Location: RIVERLOFT, Konkordiastrasse 20, Dusseldorf

When we started talking about “Cloud-Services” people thought of Corporate IT. But wait, think again: The more we got used to storing all our contacts and dates, pictures and files in the cloud to make all that accessible from where ever we might be the more we all started using cloud-services – from Google to iCloud, from Dropbox to Instagram to name but a few.

But cloud-services are more than just a cheap and reliable way to to store away all your personal data. They can give you anything from enterprise-software to personal music, from time-management to social games. But will all those services really be as reliable and safe as your usual desktop-software?
Reason enough to dig deeper into the subject at our next MoMo DUS!

As e-commerce has come of age (it’ll be a 20 something this year) it’s little sibling m-commerce is still struggling to reach the critical mass needed for exponential growth.
But wait: There’s commerce literally everywhere: You could be out in the streets and check Qype for a restaurant near you. Or you could be sitting on a train organizing your next holiday trip with recommendations of your social network contacts. And you might even enjoy the coziness of your living room shopping around for the best deals on spring fashion from your iPad.
Digital commerce happens everywhere, from all your (mobile) devices. And we will discuss opportunities and threats imposed by that development onto retailers as well as e-commerce providers and other players in the field.

Dear Mobile Enthusiasts & MoMo Followers!
Come and get together with us to celebrate the 5th anniversary of MobileMonday in Germany! It is already 5 years since we started with MobileMonday in Duesseldorf and over time spread our activity to Munich, Berlin, Hamburg and Frankfurt. In all of these cities we have run almost 100 events including successful formats like our annual National Summit, the Kudos Award and the unique m2d2 – MobileMonday Developer Day. We have over 4.400 followers and created the largest Mobile Force in Germany. So it is time to celebrate:
The 2011 MobileMonday National Summit will take place on the 14th November in Duesseldorf’s Rudas Studios in the famous and trendy Medienhafen.
We’ll already start at 13:00 and have an open end – so you better be prepared to have a good party time with great food, DJ and VJ.
If you would like to stay overnight in Dusseldorf, you’ll find our hotel recommendations here.
The agenda is live now.

Supported by our fabulous partner Ganzfeld.
We know that mobile payments are redefining commerce, but will our phones soon replace our wallets?
PayPal seems to think so. The payments giant boldly predicts that the wallet will be dead by 2015.
PayPal isn’t the only one getting into the game though. Google recently launched Google Wallet, the search giant’s mobile payment system, and Visa recently made a strategic investment in Square, the mobile payments platform now worth more than $1.4 billion.
We decided to look deeper into mobile payment trends and created this event that tracks what experts and analysts believe will happen to mobile commerce in the next four years, including what will happen with near field communication (NFC).
Speakers confirmed by now:
- HSBC
- inMobi
- Metro Group
- PayPal
- Vodafone
More speakers to be announced soon – stay tuned.

Mobile Internet usage has finally broken into the mainstream mass-market. And that is also and especially true for mobile social media, networks and platforms: 200 Million out of 600 Million Facebook-members use their social network on the go. And more than 50% of the German mobile Internet audience use one or more social apps on their handsets.
Increasing numbers of social apps on the Web make more sense when you use them on the road. What is true for Foursquare and Qype is also true for the better part of Twitter: You have more to talk about on the road than from your desktop.
And in that process location is becoming something like the general “killer-parameter” for all for all mobile social activities: Out in the wild it’s your friends nearby that count and the place to meet them is what makes all the difference.
Time: July 4, 2011 from 6pm to 10pm
Location: Dusseldorf
Street: PLATZ DER IDEEN 1 (at Grey GmbH)
City/Town: Dusseldorf
Speakers:
Wolf Kunert is responsible for building HTC’s new Business Solutions for Enterprises use of smartphones.
Markus Bokowsky is founder and CEO of Bokowsky & Laymann GmbH in Munich
Dr Lutz Kohl is „Chief-Nerd“ with a special expertise in server-side implementations of business logics at Match2Blue, a leading developer of mobile B2B solution.
What more trends, technologies and interfaces (think: “Augmented Reality”) will shape the way we all will use the mobile Internet will be up for presentation and debate on 4th of July (got that?) at Düsseldorf’s next MoMo.
