London

A year ago, more or less, our event on tablets looked forward to emerging trends and exciting possibilities. Here we are a year later, and with many thanks to our kind sponsors Barnes and Noble we get the opportunity to look back on what was thought to be coming then and see what’s coming next. Not only that, but there will be a NOOK developer workshop in the late afternoon, before the evening event – see below for details. It’s a timely moment to look at the market given Wednesday’s much heralded “expected announcement” and the recent triumph of Morris Lessmore …

Using public and other data in mobile applications seems like a natural fit for lots of applications. And there’s more and more of it, especially since Tim Berners-Lee pushed for open data with his crowd rousing chant, “raw data now” at TED 2009 – making developers and data providers aware of demand. But what’s it all about? There’s open data, commercial data, raw data, linked data, data marketplaces, data apps and data journalism… to name a few! Join us for a session with some of the top data professionals in the world today for a discussion on what it’s all …

Mobile games is arguably the most significant contributor to mobile content revenues – so there’s plenty to learn from that sector if you’re not in it – and plenty to think about from others’ experience if you are. In our first session of 2012 (our 69th ever), on Monday 30th January, in partnership with ICT KTN (http://ictktn.org.uk), we’ll take a look at the successes of 2011 and the current trends into 2012.  If you create mobile games, or think you want to, you’ll have observed the remarkable shift from Premium to Freemium, but what are the elements of a successful …

In its second event of November, MobileMonday London focussed on growth opportunities and support for SMEs and Start-Ups. The formal part of the meeting was followed by networking for VCs, angel investors, accelerators and companies looking for support. John Spindler, CEO of Capital Enterprise set the scene with his presentation below, before chairing a panel discussion on what the opportunities he described would mean to SMEs and Start-Ups. The panel was: James Mawson, Founder and Editor, Global Corporate Venturing, Ben Whitaker, CEO, Masabi, Anthony Clarke, Chair of the British Business Angel Association (BBAA), Frederic Lardieg from Vodafone Ventures, Jamie Finn from …

As winter settles upon us, it looks as though the are some positive signs of a change in climate for SMEs and Start-Ups. If you’re an SME, a Start-Up, or thinking that you should be, this is a must-attend event in which we’ll survey what’s coming up in 2012 and a great opportunity for investors, companies and the support network to meet and mingle. MobileMonday London and our lovely friends over at ICT KTN  are co-promoting this event in which John Spindler CEO of Capital Enterprise will introduce us to those trends and lead a panel discussion what what it means to …

Wiping a small tear from my eye as I write this, I’m thinking back to the first event we held at the Vodafone offices in The Strand on the 7th Nov 2005 and the 70-odd (really) events we have held since. The mobile industry has come an awfully long way since then – so it seems appropriate for us to look back over that period, and to look forward to what’s coming next. Helping us do so, and trying not to overdo the A A Milne references, but not really succeeding: Martyn Warwick (aka Christopher Robin) from TelecomTV (who just …
