Maximising revenue and engaging the consumer is the focus of
VIBtelecoms latest conference - Location Based Services. To be held on
Wednesday 3 and 4 September, 2008, the event will be in London and will
explore mass uptake, revenue acquisition, and consumer acceptance
within the context of the very latest industry developments.
“Location Based Services are an area of great interest to the telecoms sector” according to Bryan Stockwell, (Business Development Manager, Mobile Commerce). “With operators allowing their networks to open; opportunities to capitalise on location aware products are increasing.’ Speaking at the event on aggregation and the importance of cross-network interoperability, Stockwell declares 2008 as ‘certainly the year for significant LBS development’ where ‘getting the right information is the crucial factor in encouraging market growth.”
Tackling the ‘enablers and barriers’ in LBS, will be O2’s expert, Ian Curran (head of Telematics and M2M Communications). Curran will be discussing, the practical approaches, to sourcing sustainable revenue streams along with a panel discussion on making LBS indispensable to the consumer.
Together with Stockwell and Curran, voices of experience and success in LBS- Nokia, OMA, KPN, Telenor and Swisscom will be joining the expert panel and openly discussing the deployment of Location Based Services, and demonstrating from a practical aspect, how to develop revenue streams.
The conference will be extremely useful for mobile network operators, content providers, application providers, handset providers and regulation committees, and a networking hot spot for all those involved in LBS today.
