WIPJam is coming to Tel Aviv, Yay!

I am really glad to announce that WIPJam, the internationally known mobile developer event, is coming to Tel-Aviv! Yes, yes, we'll have a WIPJam Tel Aviv on January 16.

I've known the WIPJam events for quite a while, they've become an integral part of most global mobile related events. In the past 4 years I've participated and moderated discussion groups at the MWC (Barcelona), CTIA (USA) and at the MoMo Summit in Helsinki, Well, actually this one was on a ferry going from Helsinki to Tallinn... The theme was "Pirates of the Baltics" as you can see in the picture...

So when the opportunity came to host a WIPJam in Tel-Aviv, I went for it - I wanted developers here to experience the magic of these events. The discussion group format for one is a great format to really get feedback and insights from our peers - and we'll have at least 8 of those in WIPJam Tel Aviv.

It wasn't easy getting Thibaut Rouffineau, the Londo based great WIP host to come and host it - WIP is very busy these days doing events all over the world: he'll be coming to Israel after hosting an event in CES and shortly after he departs he has another one in the US.

But in the end I kinda reminded him of the expected whether in London that time of year (By using this great oatmeal comics, and on the other hand the one we'll have here... and there we have it: WIPJam Tel Aviv is on!

So if you're in town join us! Details and registration:
