Oh my word, this year's MEX conference in London is looking epic! Such a prestigious and diverse selection of speakers, not just from the mobile industry but other areas that have been exploring how mobile can enhance peoples' lives and the way they connect with businesses, brands, media, artwork and so on. The speakers hail from big names like Nokia, ITV News, Plan (yup that's me), TouchType, Jawbone, Qualcomm, Native, Deutsche Telekom’s T-Labs and so on. As always the topics are at the forefront of UX thinking.
Apparently there are a few tickets remaining, so sign up ASAP.
I'll be speaking about 'Super local connectivity', looking at the short-range interaction between mobiles and other devices. There's going to be an explosion of activity in this area in the near future (starting with payment), so I'm excited to be a part of the discussion. There are a number of technologies fighting it out in this space (NFC, image recognition, RFID, GPS, etc.), but more importantly a whole new palette of experiences will be made possible that blur the divide between the digital and physical worlds.
