Every day a new mobile company, technology or feature launches, but many are hard-pressed to demonstrate their real business value. Social-Loco will not only dive into social and mobile web convergence, but also explore what this means for big brands, SMBs and consumers. Learn from real-world successes in daily deals, location based services and advertising, mobile marketing platforms and more.
Executives from Groupon, JiWire, Facebook, Google, ATTi, Foursquare, Microsoft will join investors and entrepreneurs to address these topics in a highly interactive setting. We’ll also feature some of the most innovative startups in this space by allowing finalists of our Startup Competition the opportunity to pitch onstage.
