Back from FOWA 2007

By David | October 8, 2007

FOWAAfter a roller coaster Techcrunch 40 in San Francisco, we were back at it with the whole Zong team at the Future of Web Apps conference in London.

All in all it was a pretty good conference, but support for Sponsors was kind of weak (Zong was a Silver Sponsor of the conference). The organizer will need to pay extra attention to this for their next edition.

The very positive feedback we had from almost all developers at the conference is very encouraging. We explained how Mobile can become a true alternative or complement to advertising based business models on the Web. Most startups can add a mobile experience to their App and generate revenues as users are ready to pay on mobile while the perception of the free world on the Internet is still prevalent.

We have some very exciting startups about to launch using Zong and I will comment on these when they get out of stealth mode. Also while I’m at it, you should read the Zong’s blog, as the team now posts regularly on its progress.
