  • The iPhone as an Emerging Enterprise Platform

    Only a limited number of places are still available for this event. 
    For bookings email techroadmap@enterprise-ireland.com

    The iPhone has captured significant mindshare since its launch in 2007, and in particular the application development model and the iTunes App Store, which has had over two billion downloads of over 100,000 applications.

    There has been a move from games and other ‘fun’ applications to software companies looking to add mobile channels for their products. Enterprise focussed companies like Intuition are developing iPhone applications in order to add to the value of their core product or service.

    As part of the Enterprise Europe Network, Enterprise Ireland are hosting an information and networking event on December 2nd in Dublin.  (The Event Programme can be downloaded in pdf file from the top of this page).

    This is a chance for software companies to explore the opportunities presented by mobile applications and Apple's iPhone in particular. Topics covered will include:

    - What is so special about the iPhone?
    - How does one develop applications – what are the skills required?
    - What are the costs?
    - How to deploy enterprise applications?

    There will also be an opportunity to meet with the iPhone developer community in Ireland.
