MoMoLo Goes to Barcelona–and we’re talking about mobile advertising

Yes, that’s right, Mobile Monday London is in Barcelona next week for Mobile World Congress and we have a great panel session lined up for you at 4pm on Tuesday 15th February in the UKTI’s seminar room which is Sala Principe in Hall 8 at La Fira itself. You must have an exhibition ticket in order to be able to attend this event.

You've heard about speed dating, maybe even speed networking, but have you heard of speed panels? Well that's what Mobile Monday London and UKTI and BSkyB have in store for you. You'll be hearing from a variety of practitioners and pundits talking about all things mobile marketing and advertising and the session will be ably chaired by the Godfather of Mobile Marketing, Russell Buckley, Admob Evangelist at Google and Global Chairman Emeritus of the Mobile Marketing Association. He also blogs at Mobhappy.com. The session will be hosted by me. (It should be noted that both Russell and I started our mobile careers at the turn of the 21st Century at mobile marketing pioneer, ZagMe.)

You'll also hear from:

Pamir Gelenbe, formerly founder and VP Sales/Strategy at Flytxt and now Venture Partner at BBV

Mark Curtis, CEO of Flirtomatic

Harry Dewhirst, VP at Amobee
