Time Running Out to Register For Mobile Monday Lansing Re-launch

LANSING – A topic of interest to a wide range of organizations has been selected as the keynote topic at the upcoming re-launch of Lansing’s Mobile Monday chapter. ‘Apps for the Enterprise; How is Business Maximizing the Benefit of Apps’ is the selected topic and it will be presented by Jeff Imholz, WebSphere Technical Specialist for IBM.

Imholz will share with Mobile Monday Lansing attendees the IBM perspective on the Internet of Things (IoT) and how it is being interpreted in the enterprise space, along with insights related to the aforementioned partnership with Apple for Enterprise App Development.

“Lansing really needs a resource focused on mobile/wireless tech where people can go to get advice, make connections, learn about the latest in mobile/wireless tech, and gain new opportunities,” said Mobile Monday Lansing Chapter Leader Leo Dion. “Mobile Monday provides all this and more for the Lansing tech community!”

Also speaking at the event will be Linda Daichendt, CEO and Executive Director of the Mobile Technology Association of Michigan (MTAM), the non-profit parent organization of Mobile Monday Michigan and the Lansing chapter.
