To be held Apr. 22 in Santa Clara, the first-year event is geared toward students and higher-education academicians, as well as investors, engineers, and executives, organizers said. About 300 attendees are expected, along with 25 panelists representing 25 different companies. Panelists include Didier Diaz of Access, David Pogue of The New York Times, Christy Wyatt of Motorola, and Yongguang Zhang of Microsoft Research Asia, among others.
Morning sessions are organized around the heady strategic topic of how new mobile devices, applications, and services will "change the way people work, play, and relate." Practical considerations will be held at bay until the afternoon sessions, when things get down to the tactical nitty gritty of, "How can we turn the vision into reality?"
Registration is going for $120 until April 7, when the ante ups to $200. More details may be available
