Coming Soon: State Of The Mobile Net

April 14, 2009

Senate Commerce Committee member John Thune, R-S.D.; Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va.; Virginia Technology Secretary Aneesh Chopra; and Internet visionary Susan Crawford, who is now working for the White House's National Economic Council, will headline the inaugural State of the Mobile Net policy conference on Capitol Hill later this month. The April 23 conference, hosted by the Congressional Internet Caucus Advisory Committee, will bring together mobile and wireless policy pros and tech industry leaders to discuss policy and marketplace issues facing the dynamically evolving mobile Internet.

Panelists will probe key public policy issues on panels such as "Spectrum: Is the Lifeblood of the Mobile Net Running Dry?," "Privacy on the Go," and "What Policy Framework Will Further Enable Innovation on the Mobile Net?" The conference will also feature educational panels on such topics as "What is the Mobile Net: Understanding the Mobile Net Ecosystem", "Cloud Computing and Emerging Business Models in the Mobile Space," and "Mobile Network Infrastructure Trends." More information about the conference and the full agenda can be found here.
