"We don't even know how many are out there."

Mobile Monday begins its 5th networking season!

At the next event, on the 13th October at "Le Biciclette" in Milan, we'll talk about Mobile Device Management (MDM):

Do you know, how many laptops, smartphones, PDAs and in-vehicle devices your company has around? Do you know how confidential data of your business they contain? Which applications their users have installed on them?

The use of mobile devices (most of them equipped with corporate email-access and many with capabilities to run proprietary business applications) have changed dramatically, writes Richard Martin at InformationWeek and continues:

Today, powerful mobile devices are as likely to be found in the hands of field technicians, mobile salespeople, and mid-level managers as they are C-level executives.

As the power and connectivity of mobile devices surge, their numbers are exploding: research firm IDC predicts that sales of enterprise "converged mobile devices" (smartphones, UMPCs, and the like) will reach 63 million units worldwide by 2010, up from 7.3 million in 2005...

"We don't even know how many are out there."

Evidently, mobile devices enable communications and facilitate access to necessary data regardless of time and place. At the same time, however, it is necessary to support and manage the devices - also regardless of time and place.

What does it take to keep the company mobile device fleet safe and updated? Mobile Monday will talk about the Mobile Device Management Business with an impressive line-up of top specialists:
