Thanks Ajit – in fact I’ve been back to China since at a Digital Media / DRM event in Shanghai which opened up new business opportunities – however I don’t have a pic of me promoting the book and Mobile Web 2.0 although I did mention it, hold it high, and weaved some of the concepts into the event. We now have 2 agreements with Chinese IT / outsourcing companies moving into the space. Getting into China is not easy – one needs an invitation and a visa which take time (2 visits on separate days to the embassy) – so trusted relationships and agreements are like gold dust.
Our world is convergence, digital media management and trusted / secure communications service and solutions. There’s lots of columns inches written about this stuff but too few know the right questions to ask. Thankfully our exposure from LA and SF thru NY, Europe and Korea, Japan and China provides a rare view. Our work on DRM strategy in infotainment for the leading global mobile operator drawing on this global exposure was hailed as a “wake up call” to the company.
I participated in a UK government sponsored trip to Korea and Japan recently looking at this space. If anyone wants a copy of the report please get in touch with me
Cheers Ajit and Tony – keep up the good work
