Rudy,
I know three women, both with considerable mobile experience and running an up-start in the Bay area who you may want to contact. In addition, I also know a number of VCs that are women who may have exposure to others. Send me an email, or go to http://www.mobilepointview.com

Don’t shoot the piano player, Debi! FYI: I’m not involved in the organisation of this event just an invited speaker, but you do have a point here so I bow humbly and let your voice to be heard here again.

BTW: do you know any exciting start-ups in mobile led by female entrepreneurs? If so, I’d be happy to learn and blog about them.

Damnit, Rudy. *hugely disappointed sigh*

My interest in this conference would normally be significant, however, surveying the speaker roster – it’s all dudes! There are enough women working in this space as you, yourself, have highlighted that yet another conference where the microphone doesn’t work for female voices is ridiculous.

I will not attend this conference or any other, from now on, which features a male only speaker roster when so many women were available to contribute and add value to the global discussion.

I will not promote or congratulate organizers of events that cheat their audiences of the full range of views and knowledge.
