Simon Rockman’s Summary

Motorola:

Marketing and Strategy. Particularly working on Long term problems (notably the user interface) and short term solutions (building a skunk works to fix it) in parallel. A pragmatic visionary.

Special interests:

Music in the emerging markets, inclusive design which lets a 75 year old use a phone as easily as a 15 year old and mobile phones for education.

Mobile Industry networking dinners:
Founded and host a monthly meeting of the movers and shakers in the mobile industry. Described by one regular attendee as "like being in the bar after a trade show without the trade show". Lots of real work gets done there and even if it doesn't it's fun.

Simon Rockman’s Specialties:

A fantastically broad understanding of the mobile industry with excellent contacts and a solid techie understanding.

Simon Rockman’s Experience

Mobile Money Information Exchange

GSMA

(Non-Profit; Telecommunications industry)

November 2009 — Present (1 month)

The Mobile Money Information eXchange is an online community for those who want to change the world through mobile payments. It looks at all areas of mobile money from NFC in the developed world to mobile money for the unbanked.

The Mobile Money Information eXchange is not yet live, I'm interested in talking to people who can help build the community and have strong views on mobiles and money.
