If you want to know what’s sparkling these days in the mobile & wireless market, you have to be at Cicada’s for our 2nd CTIA gathering this time during CTIA Wireless 2006 in Los Angeles.

Caroline Lewko from the Wireless Industry Partnership will be your host that evening. Our Canadian mobilist is quite stoked about the venue – a really cool Art Deco restaurant, I love it! It’s about 12 blocks from the Convention Center and close to many of the CTIA hotels (according to the Manager – New Yorkers would walk it, LAers will take a cab!)

“From the 30-foot ceiling to the plush custom-designed bar and lounge, Cicada has combined 1920s Art Deco with contemporary design elements to create an extraordinary atmosphere.”

If you always wanted to mingle with the mobilist ones like Carlo Longino and Russell Buckley from MobHappy, Oliver Starr from MobileCrunch, Justin Oberman from MoPocket, and other fellows and fellines in a mix with mobile value chain players, fresh mobile startups, venture capitalists, journalists, etc., here’s your chance!

Send an email explaining a bit about yourself and your company to Caroline Lewko – caroline(at)wipconnector(dot)com – with “CTIA-Mobilist Reception” in the subject line.
