July Monthly Meeting Wrap Up July's NYSIA meeting was a great combination of business and technical information, as we explored the world of Mobile and the Opportunities for Developers and Business people.
Panel host and Board Member Ed Martino, Director, Managed Mobility Services, Vodafone Global Enterprise, led our panelists in several discussions on the challenges of developing for multiple platforms, the advantages of bringing enterprise tools to the pockets and belts of employees, and more.
Panelists Eric John, Director of Forum Nokia Marketing, Dean Collins, Director, Business Development, Amethon Mobile Analytics, Vishy Gopalakrishnan, Founder & CTO, Mobility Partners, and Tyler Lessard, Director, BlackBerry Alliances and Developer Relations, Research in Motion all provided deep and serious insights into their respective areas of expertise.
EWeek covered the panel and Darryl Taft reported "A wealth of different platforms, from Nokia to Windows Mobile to Android to the iPhone, place the mobile space among the rapidly growing greenfields for developers. New platforms, such as Android from Google, will challenge Nokia and its SymbianOS in the smart phone space." The article goes on to discuss developer platforms in terms of the business opportunities.
On ZD's Enterprise Developing Stories Blog, the story discussed Mobile Browser Fragmentation. It notes that developers should continue to avoid heavy DHTML and Scripting such as JavaScript to reach the largest audiences.
Both articles are worth reading for a good summary of the panel.

Monthly meeting hosts author and columnist Mary Jo Foley Mary Jo Foley has covered the tech industry for 25 years and has been keeping a close eye on Microsoft strategy, products, and technologies for most of that time. Foley's "All About Microsoft" blog is among the top business blogs and her perspective is valued throughout the tech community. On Monday she came to discuss her new book Microsoft 2.0: How Microsoft Plans to Stay Relevant in the Post-Gates Era which has just been published. Mary Jo answered many questions, including what she'd do if she were running Microsoft -- rationalize some of the naming and branding so people would understand what products are available. She also speculated on the MSFT/YHOO combination, and Microsoft as "an ad company." Thanks to Mary Jo for giving away 2 copies of her book to audience members.

NYSIA's April Meeting Reviewed Center Networks' Allen Stern summarized the April Meeting on Startup Life and Challenges in NYC. Panelists Hank Williams, Founder and CEO, Kloudshare, Jeffrey Stewart, Founder, Mimeo.com, Jason Olim, founder CDNow, and Roger Krakoff, Sigma Partners shared stories, concerns and their combined experience with the audience of entrepreneurs and tech industry veterans. Allen brought up challenges in communication (such as finding talent) as one of his chief concerns. We hope to help on that topic and more from here at NYSIA.
NYSIA's March Monthly Meeting NYSIA hosted a panel on Social Networking: The New Communications Paradigm. IBM's
Heidi Votaw lead off the event with a keynote explaining how IBM is using social networks internally to connect employees around projects and areas of interest. Then Heidi and panelists Eric Alterman of KickApps and Andrew Weinreich of MeetMoi discussed social networks in the context of companies, the enterprise and even mobile social apps. Many of the over 175 attendees stayed after the panel to ask questions of the three, and it is a topic that will bear watching in the future.
NYSIA's Feburary Meeting well received NYSIA's February Meeting hosted Henry Blodget of the Silicon Alley Insider. Over 200 attendees learned about his opinions regarding Microsoft/Yahoo, Google, and the New York tech scene. Allen Stern's Center Networks captured the action with a blog post and video.

NYSIA Sales and Marketing SIG

learn important techniques and practice them first hand while having
meaningful interactions with fellow participants.
