The Digital Lifestyle Forum, London, England

It provides the chance to convert the latest technologies, services and applications into valued and compelling experiences for the consumer. This forum has been created with an emphasis on discussion, debate and interaction to enable participants to compare ideas and strategies, as well as identify potential partnerships.

-What are the major drivers behind the digital lifestyle?
-How important is the role of content in driving uptake?
