We are now less than a month away from the Mobile Madness Motor City forum, Xconomy’s first mobile event in Detroit. We hope to see you there, and are offering special rates to students and startups designed to fit a range of budgets.
The event takes place on Jan. 17 from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Compuware Building in downtown Detroit, and we’ll have plenty of time during and afterward for networking and discussion. You can get tickets here.
Mobile Madness Motor City has a top-notch lineup of speakers that includes serial entrepreneurs, young founders of hot companies, visionaries, leaders inside global corporations, and investors.
