The Environment

They take pictures of nearly everything…

Of course, not all businesses think highly of cell phones…
• Investment firm Morgan Stanley predicts that more consumers will access the Internet by mobile devices than PCs within 5 years.
• North American mobile Web consumption increased 110% in 2009 to represent 1.3% of all Web Pageviews with 450 million mobile Internet users worldwide (IDC)
• 61% of the world population carries a mobile phone and 71% of US frequent business travelers carry smartphones
Gartner predicts this will happen in 3 years.
No Denying the Trends
By 2014, over 3 billion of the world's adult population will be able to transact electronically via mobile or Internet technology with a 90% mobile penetration rate and 6.5 billion mobile connections

So what do we have…a Transaction Highway

SmartphonesAre Everywhere…
1.6 Billion Smartphones in the World
by 2013
That’s nearly 1 smartphone in
the hands of every fifth
person in the world…
We Think Most Travelers…
Still require a personal touch
However Shopping is shifting…
Travelers (and customers in general) are becoming increasingly comfortable purchasing anything on their mobile phone
In fact, the next (& current) generation of shoppers will expect it…
What is your business doing to address this growing shift to mobility and commerce?
How would your travelers rate your current mobile shopping experience?
68% of shoppers are frustrated with the experiences that retailers provide on a mobile phone.
They have hundreds of phones…
And expect you to deliver what they need from 24 hours a day from it…
Information Consumption has Shifted…

And only some realize the importance (right now).
Let’s Face It…
Our Mission
1. Create state of the art mobile applications derived from common and available product and enterprise services.
2. Utilize best practices and consistent infrastructure in design, development and testing.
3. Ensure ubiquity in solution and device independence.
