Set to attract more than 24,000 attendees, Mobile Asia Expo 2014 promises to be bigger and better, with a range of new programmes and experiences for both business and consumer attendees.

The GSMA is also launching two new programmes: the Digital Commerce Summit, which will take place on 10 June, and the Innovation Workshop scheduled for 12 June.

GSMA Public Policy Forum

Given the importance of sound government policy to the mobile ecosystem and the impact Asia Pacific has on a global scale, the GSMA will be hosting its third annual Public Policy Forum at Mobile Asia Expo, bringing together key stakeholders from telecommunications ministries and regulatory authorities, mobile operators and industry manufacturers. Under the theme of Achieving the Big Goals through Aligned Action , the 2014 Forum will examine the big payoffs for society that can be achieved through multi-stakeholder co-ordination in the delivery of new connected devices and services throughout the Asia Pacific region.
