Mobile Web East Africa will focus on a range of topics relating to the 
core areas in the development of the mobile ecosystem and how the 
potential of the mobile device can truly be realised.

These are probably easiest illustrated as a range of key questions as 
opposed to themes:


1. How will the industry evolve to a point where the vast majority of 
people have
access to the mobile web and the content they want to view?

2. How will the industry fully exploit existing and future opportunities?

3. How can PC or mobile based developers and start-ups monetise their 
innovation
and creativity to grow in to companies that will drive the expansion of the
ecosystem?

4. How can Operators, Original Equipment Manufacturers, global 
associations and
other mobile powerhouses assist their smaller partners?

5. How can societal and economic problems be tackled by the development 
of the
capabilities of the mobile device?

6. What handsets, standards, networks and designs will allow consumers to
successfully access the content and consume it?

7. How will the consumer be able to discover that content – through a 
Portal,
Application, Browser, Search Engine, Advert, Social Network?

Through a series of presentations, extended panel discussions and 
networking opportunities these questions will be tackled.
You, alongside 120 of the individuals who are leading the development of 
the sector in East Africa, will make real progress towards discovering 
the answers.
