Simon Rockman started the mobile industry networking dinners in 2001 to promote an exchange of news and information in the mobile industry. He teamed up with Richard Evans to give a wider audience to the events. This is the 64th Mobile Industry networking dinner, and the date co-incides with Simon's 48th Birthday. Please don't suggest that he's 64, it's bad enough being "almost 50". The dinners are a great chance to mix with up to 50 other folk from the mobile and related sectors to discuss whatever you want to.   Different people attend each time, but there is always a wide range from entrepreneurs to investors, the biggest companies in the industry to start ups. Operators, devices, infrastructure, content and application providers, web services, brands, agencies, mobile services, technologists and visionaries are all be represented.   The format is casual with no sponsors or presentations, just good food, wine and discussion and we shuffle people around to allow everyone to make the most of the networking.   If you are coming please paste your Linkedin URL into the other information field of the acceptance box. This lets everyone see who you are in advance of the event. You can join the LinkedIn discussion group here.   We will be hosting the Networking Dinner at Little Italy Restaurant, 21 Frith Street, Soho London, W1D 4RN Google map. The nearest tube station is Tottenham Court Road (Central line only at the moment)  or Leicester Square and there is a NCP car park at 112 Great Russell Street.   We sit down to dinner at 8pm, but most people arrive earlier, anytime from 7pm for networking in the bar upstairs before hand. There is a fixed menu with a vegetarian alternative.   Please note that the dinners are run on a pay your own way basis and the restaurant's menu charge is £40.00, despite the Eventbrite invitation suggesting it is free (ie no booking fee).   Please pay the restaurant as you leave. Please also pay separately for any drinks in the bar before dinner or if you want any drinks at the table beyond the wine which is included in the fixed menu.   Simon is on 07973 204024 Richard is on 07778 777 999We hope to see you there.
