iPhone & Smartphone Developers & Publishers - London

Purpose: To bring together developers and publishers of Iphone/smartphone services

Developers: this event will help you showcase your ideas, find interesting work and swap notes with other developers.

Content publishers: this event will introduce you to the programmers who can make your content come alive on the iPhone and other smartphone devices.

It’s hoped that both content and tech folk will gain a fuller understanding of each other’s needs. Our first few meetings will be in small and informal settings, so much the better to have the one-to-one chats that lead to paid work and finished products all round!

Invited to attend: - Content publishers – print and online (book publishers, newspaper and magazines publishers, games, web publishers etc)

  • Software developers – individuals or agencies

  • Phone manufacturers and operators

  • Angel investors and VCs

  • Associated professional services e.g. SEO and advertising

  • Anyone with a commercial or organizational interest in the iPhone and other smartphones

Entrance is always free, in the best traditions of Meetup.com and boot-strapping start-ups!

Organisers Jason Dunne and Craig Smith have worked in UK print media since the early 90s. Jason is formerly the publisher of the “…For Dummies” series of how-to books; Craig is a business development executive at O’Reilly Books and author of the O’Reilly GMT blog.

    Hi all For the next iPhone Developers and Publishers Meetup our good friends at Yuza Mobile have offered use of their highly impressive club venue. The place comes complete with floor-to-ceiling interactive walls (and air-con!) but with bar prices held low for the occasion - we couldn't ask for more, really. It really is a jaw-dropping venue. See for yourself here. If this place was good enough for Pharrell Williams and Mark Ronson to hang out (and it was), then it's good enough for us.
