Xconomy Mobile Madness 2012: Total Mobility in Pictures

There may be fervor around college basketball this month, but we’d like to think we drum up some pretty intense excitement around the mobile industry in March. Xconomy held its fourth Mobile Madness forum on Wednesday at Microsoft’s New England Research and Development Center in Cambridge, MA. Audience members packed in to hear the massively accomplished speaker roster talk about mobile tech subjects such as big data, advertising, and commerce. All seemed excited about what Boston can do in the various sectors, and how the resources for entrepreneurs are growing. We capped off the program with some pizza- (and drink-) filled networking.

A huge thanks to our sponsors Bluetrain Mobile, Comcast Business Class, Microsoft NERD, Next Stage Solutions, Turnstone, UKTI, and Wolf & Company. Now, check out the photos and see if you can find yourself in the mix, or at least feel like you were there. My colleague and Mobile Madness event organizer Gregory Huang also recapped some key quotes of the day.
