Mobile Entertainment Forum Presentations on Video
Naviblog Corp., which showcased their local search and location-based information sharing technology at Mobile Monday Tokyo in May, gave a very entertaining presentation at the Mobile Entertainment Forum, part of the recent Wireless Japan 2006 trade show. In the presentation, Naviblog CEO & President Mandali Khalesi explained their browser-based approach to mobile products in more detail.
Naviblog is a finalist for this year’s Red Herring Asia 100, an award program recognizing the most promising and innovative private technology companies with high growth potential in Asia. The winners will be announced 21 August and will appear in Hong Kong at the Red Herring Asia 100 “Meet Asia’s Innovators” Summit, 28-30 August.
As Philip Sugai, Assistant Professor at the International University of Japan, Niigata, and founding member of the newly established u-Lab mobile think tank, said afterwards: “What an eye-opener! Not only is the stuff those guys are doing unbelievably cool, but after seeing their presentation, I think I will completely have to revise my lecture style.” u-Lab sponsored the Mobile Entertainment Forum event. Here’s the video of opening remarks from Qualcomm’s Ted Matsumoto, one of Japan’s and Asia’s most knowledgeable mobile thinkers.
