"Mobile marketing is one of the most creative methods for connecting people on a global scale, and as an organization, CTIA is committed to providing the best environment to share these ideas. We are excited about this year's mobile marketing program and look forward to the speakers sharing their insights."

"While mobile marketing is the best new way to reach the coveted 18-34 demographic, a lot of marketers are finding that these new campaigns are reaching a much broader audience than they ever imagined," said Steve Largent, president and CEO of CTIA -- The Wireless Association.

"The use of Common Short Code in so many television programs today clearly demonstrates that consumers are interacting with entertainment content through their mobile device. People of all ages and backgrounds are taking part in the campaigns."
