Next week, I will be speaking at the 1st Apps Summit, a conference organized by the Conference Group in Wiesbaden (near Frankfurt). The event, which runs on 4/5 May, features high-profile speakers from the creme de la creme of German (and international) business, including:
- Otto
- Lufthansa
- Deutsche Post
- Axel Springer
- Avis
- HRS
- G+J
- Volkswagen
- Yahoo
- Admob
- Madvertise
If you’re close, come by. It should be great! The conference programme and more info are here: www.conferencegroup.de/m-commerce
I know, I know, there’s a ton of conferences out there at the moment but this one has some real goodies to offer. The Social Media World Forum packs a lot of stuff into one by running no less than five different streams (next to mobile, this is the general one, enterprise social media, social TV, and cloud computing). There is a Facebook Developer Garage to go with it, too.
It’s running on 15/16 March in London (Olympia).
I’ll be speaking on mobile & social, making a case for the gaming side of things but there are some others, too… 😉 Companies sending top-level speakers include:
- Mercedes Benz
- Mars
- Mattel
- Orange
- Vodafone
- Yahoo!
- Cisco
- IKEA
- DHL
- StudiVZ
- Netlog
- CBS
- BBC
- Fremantle
- Endemol
- Beck’s
- Lufthansa
- Shell
- ING
- Marks & Spencer
- Virgin Atlantic
- TalkTalk
- bebo
- Ecademy
I actually feel quite small now! Come along, it should be inspiring and entertaining. Tweet me @vhirsch to meet for a chat.
I will be setting off to San Francisco to seek out the geek fest that is GDC (or, to mere mortals, the Game Developers Conference).
Scoreloop (for who I am doing some work as you will have found out by now), are throwing a party (with PocketGamer and MPlayIt) and you should let me know if you think you should be there but an invite has escaped you.
We have some exciting stuff to tell (some may have seen the podcast we did with Motorola and MySpace and there is more to come), so please get in touch (contact form) if you want to meet.
As a result, I may be a little silent over the next week or so. Bear with me…
This week is still all about Casual Connect Europe but then it is off to Barcelona for the annual mobile fest that is Mobile World Congress. I will be there from Sunday night onwards and you should earmark a couple of things (where you will likely be able to meet me, too):
Mobile Sunday has fast become a tradition amongst the mobile bloggerati and it is now being frequented by more and more industry folks. The list of attendees (which funnily still has me with an ancient affiliation that I haven’t held in years) reads well. Check it out and come by for a gentle kickstart into the week!
Next up is the Mobile Premier Awards, the global competition of Mobile Monday-nominated high-flyers where I had the great pleasure and honour to judge upon. The award night is on Monday.
On Wednesday, we have Swedish Beers (Facebook Event page) in Barcelona, which already had 254 confirmed guests (as per FB) the last time I checked.
And on Thursday, Caroline Lewko’s WIP Jam, the developer world’s leading and most beloved un-conference, opens its doors, an event I really look forward to. There’s a party for that, too, of course…
If you would like to get in touch, drop me a line through the contact form.
