Industry Voices—Lowenstein’s View: Expectations and hopes for MWCA | FierceWireless
Next week, in a clear sign that summah is ovaah, many of us will be hopping on planes to Los Angeles to attend MWCA—the annual fall CTIA confab that is 25+ years old but only aged 2 in its recent partnership configuration.

(why didn’t they build the convention center in Santa Monica?), this is proving to be an important conference.
