Technology Roundtable with MobiTV's CEO, Phillip Alvelda October 11, 2006

Please join the HBS Alumni association for an intimate discussion with Phillip Alvelda, co-Founder and CEO of MobiTV.
Emeryville-based MobiTV, founded in 1999, is the world's leading provider of mobile television and digital radio services for cellular, WiFi and broadband enabled devices.

The company's target market for mobile television and media services is viewed as still in its infancy, but the total scale of the overall opportunity, with over 2.2 billion mobile phone subscribers worldwide, combined with the staggering recent adoption figures, promise to transform television the same way the mobile phone transformed communications. MobiTV is now poised to progressively incorporate an ever-expanding range of multimedia functions, including video as the baseline application that grows to include a full range of personalization, on-demand, and e-commerce capabilities. Dr. Alvelda and the leadership team of MobiTV just announced a successful fundraising round of $70M in July 2006 to help fuel international expansion and further technology and infrastructure development.

How does a young company tackle such a large opportunity on a global scale against a multitude of large competitors and other focused start-ups? This event gives you the chance to discuss these and other issues directly with a wireless technology pioneer as part of an HBSA/NC Technology Roundtable.
