Pillsbury teams up with App Conference and GMIC

The App Conference and Global Mobile Internet Conference (GMIC) took place October 18-19-20 at the San Jose Hilton and San Jose Convention Center. This event brought together more than 100 speakers that addressed key components of app development, marketing and revenue in 6 conference tracks over 3 days. With an emphasis on cross platform development, revenue strategies, and global growth, the shows provided key insight and networking for both developers and business professionals. Pillsbury team members Jim Gatto, Ian Schick and Jessica Slater (pictured) attended the conference.

Jim Gatto participated on the “Going Global” panel. The panel discussed a broad range of international issues and answered a number of questions including: How should developers think about going global and implementing an international strategy? Is there a difference in the way apps are conceived, developed and marketed in each type of market that each can learn from? When is the right time to localize a successful domestic app for international audiences? What are some of the pitfalls to avoid when trying to market an app internationally, and who should you be partnering with for distribution? What cultural, educational and financial differences affect the way in which apps are adopted? How do you successfully launch an app for worldwide audiences?

Fellow panelists included executives from GAMEVIL, BlueRun Ventures and Tapjoy, Inc.
