Save the date – MoMoPDX kicks off monthly meetings on January 11
Posted on: November 20, 2009 – Filed under: Portland
After several months of administrative work, blogging, tweeting and planning, Mobile Monday Portland is about to formally launch! So put a note in your calendars to come to our inaugural event!
WHAT: MoMoPDX Meeting #1
WHERE: Backspace – 115 NW 5th in Portland [map]
WHEN: January 11, 2010 from 6pm to 8pm
Details will follow, so keep your eyes on this blog. However our first meeting is intended to be a fun meet and greet where you can mix and mingle with people working in Portland’s diverse and growing mobile industry. Future events will have a more structured program with panel discussions and presentations.
As the board prepared to launch MoMoPDX, we were struck by how many people from within the local mobile industry were unaware of how large this community is. All of us certainly know that the perception of our local industry outside of Portland is that it is small. We think you’ll be surprised by how big the Portland mobile industry really is. So far the MoMoPDX board has identified more than 40 companies in the mobile and wireless industries located in the Porltand/Vancouver metro area.
The local mobile ecosystem includes hardware manufacturers, chip makers, software companies, service providers in addition to independent developers, mobility-focused marketing companies, reporters, bloggers and industry analysts. Come meet your peers as the world’s largest mobile organization launches in Portland!
