SIME 2010 – here's to a great year of digital inspiration!

Howdy friends, it’s been long and we at SIME just got back all revitalized to share with you some behind the scenes work we have been upto instead of covering ourselves in the snow. We enter this year with a vision of bringing to you the best of knowledge, inspiration, entrepreneurship, awards, workshops, academy, innovation days – all in the realm of the digital stream.

A great year for digital

It’s been a great year for things digital. Internet ad revenues are slowly picking up, but the bad year fueled new innovations, new ad. models, new formats and new channels. Web 2.0 has become so 2008, and its all about people networking. Facebook and Twitter grew, oh yes, they did, but real time search and open API seems to giving them the jump. Right when you thought smart phones and laptops are good, out came the inbetween to fill the perceived gap, the iPad. Telecom companies are fighting the game hard, and so are media companies. From bundling and giving away spectrums for MVNO’s, the dump pipe phenomenon seems to be a tag the telcos are desperate not to hold on to. Media companies are being rekindled and so is consumerism. Everything is getting better for the consumer, new devices, new toys, new games, new channels, new friends, cheaper, faster and better.

With such a platter being shaped, all things digital cannot get any more interesting, yet at the same time confusing. Is there a secret recipe to master the new channel to make money? Is there something apps and app developers can do to solve the hassle of developing on multiple platforms only to get lost in the jungle? Is the e-book phenomenon a mere hype? Will the tablet kill that game? How about real time? Can we monetize the content? What about Cable TV operators? Can they go online? How about quadrple-play – a mere buzz word analytic?

SIME  is about everything digital, to inspire corporates and entrepreneurs alike and present to them thought leaders, visionaries from different parks, different fields, different games all under one roof to showcase their ideas. And with a lofty year ahead for all of us, we thought SIME should aim big too, with more cities lined up, this year promises a lot of hard work and hence a lot of inspiration to share and be a part of.

SIME Barcelona, Stockholm, Helsinki and San Francisco …

SIME Barcelona : June 16, 17;

SIME Stockholm on November 17,18;

SIME Helsinki and San Francisco lined up.

Rest assured there is more to come

Here is to a great 2010 from the SIME crew, and looking forward to meeting you at a SIME close to your city.
