THE 3D EXPERIENCE MAKING MACHINE:  HOW MOBILE CAN MAKE YOUR COMMUNICATION DEEPER
As we move towards the end of another “year of mobile,” we need to re-think what this little machine in our pocket can really do for brands.  This little machine enhances every single experience, making it richer, deeper and more meaningful.  We need to see mobile in this way for brands.  Not as another stand-alone channel, but as a way of making everything we do in media and communications become more three-dimensional.  Mobile can (and should) be the “experience making machine” that transforms disconnected one-dimensional advertising into richer and deeper human experiences.  In this session, MediaVest will share how businesses and advertisers are tapping  into the power of the 3D experience making machine  through enhancing other channels, combining data sources and by making real life experiences more meaningful for people.

MONDELEZ INTERNATIONAL & MEDIAVEST: DESIGNING FOR MOBILITY
Mobile is changing the way consumers discover and interact with brands. With mobile ad spend in the U.S. expected to reach $2.61 billion this year, top marketers are catching up with consumer behavior, and changing the conversation from 'ads vs. apps' to how can brands deliver information, convenience, entertainment and social on the go.

Mondelez International and MediaVest will share how they approach the space as mobility versus simply mobile, leverage the unique opportunities it offers, and design mobility experiences with impact.

ZYNGA “LEANS BACK” WITH MOBILE GAMING
By nature, mobile is a format where users tend to "snack" rather than “lean back.”  Consumers interact with their mobile devices while waiting in line, riding in an elevator, or commuting.  The usage data concludes that checking a mobile device is often simply a time-filler. This is the place where mobile gaming can take the stage as games currently represent one of the few "lean back" experiences in mobile.  In this session, Zynga will share best practices on how brands can leverage mobile games to go where no marketer has gone before.
