Showcase your mobile technology in Silicon Valley on MobileBeat Mission Trip

The Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) invites Singapore’s promising mobile companies to join in an exciting mission trip. Held during July 8 – 12 2013, this upcoming opportunity will allow companies to showcase your mobile technology in Silicon Valley, USA. All consumer and enterprise mobile companies are welcome to participate.

The mission trip is centered around the MobileBeat Conference, which will take place July 9 – 10. The MobileBeat Conference is Venturebeat’s 6th annual flagship conference. It brings together the top people in the industry to explore all things mobile—the future of mobile, latest trends and the many opportunities surrounding them. The conference will provide great content and quality networking opportunities. A specialized pool of people from the mobile ecosystem, such as major carrier executives, top device makers, developers, mobile startups, analysts, investors, retailers and the media are expected at this conference.

Participants of IDA’s MobileBeat Mission Trip from July 8 – 12 2013 can look forward to the following:

• Attend MobileBeat Conference and showcase your products and services via an exhibition booth. Participants will have the chance to take part in the “Innovation Competition,” which will uncover 15 of the hottest new mobile companies as they pitch their products/services to an expert panel of judges and conference attendees. Selected companies will also be featured on Venturebeat via video interviews.
• Visit US and major foreign telcos’ innovation labs, and meet with their executives
• Personalised business meetings with MobileBeat Conference participants eg. top US industry leaders, VCs and US tech companies, such as infrastructure, app and mobile companies
• Personalised consultancy services provided by experienced Silicon Valley mentors prior and during the mission trip to help with market development activities

The cost for each start-up is at US$500 to cover related costs such as the exhibition booth rental and networking activities. Startups will need to handle and cover their own travel and accommodation.
