With mobile phone penetration reaching two billion people per year, mobile phone technology and its potential have become a hot topic for IT entrepreneurs. But beyond just being cool, how does one make money off of it? And who makes that money? If video killed the radio star, the Internet killed the video star, will wireless kill the Internet star? This is latest in the successful series of forward-looking opportunities for entrepreneurs that examine the unique wireless space: where content is king, distribution is queen, and the interrelationship between the two will provide the keys to the kingdom.

As CEO and Founder of mPortal, a leading enabler of mobile content and applications, Mr. Venkatesh is a well-recognized expert and thought leader on mobile content, wireless operator execution and enhancing the mobile user experience. With more than seventeen years of experience in the telecommunications industry across Wireless, Internet and Media sectors, his roles have varied from executive management to strategic planning and business development.
