Xconomy’s first-ever Forum on the Future of Mobile Innovation in New England will be held Tuesday April 7, 2009.

One can’t-miss highlight of the forum will be a “fireside” chat with Rich Miner, who brought the Android platform to Google and was recently named general manager of the new Google Ventures, and Sandy Pentland, the MIT Media Lab luminary who leads the Next Billion Network for mobile entrepreneurs and has been using mobile digital sensors to study social signaling between people. (Pentland just published a book on that subject, Honest Signals).

This looks like a great event for anyone in the Boston area on Tuesday.  Especially considering Mit’s Next Billion Network states, “Within the next three years, another billion people will begin to make regular use of cell phones, continuing the fastest adoption of a new technology in history”.
