We’re LIVE at MoMo London & Swedish Beers tonight

We’re off to the CBI at Centrepoint in the middle of London to a rather extraordinary MoMo London/Swedish Beers.

Swedish Beers, the networking event, is 7 years old.

MoMo London (Mobile Monday London) is 3 years old.

And they’re having a joint-birthday celebration.

And we’re doing our first ever MIR Show LIVE tonight.

The chaps are excited. Dan is wearing his pearls. James will be sporting his shades, and I’m pretty sure Ben will be wearing one of his sharp suits.

Tonight’s event is a chat show featuring industry luminaries such as Mike Short of o2, Russell Buckley of AdMob and Bill Thompson from the BBC’s Digital Planet. They’re going to be managed — or hosted — by Tim Green, Editor of Mobile Entertainment Magazine. And in the middle — slap bang in the middle — we’re going to be filming a live segment on stage.

We’re also on the hunt for interesting mobile related stuff and I’m going to get James to do a Normob walkabout, so if you’d like to get on camera, look for us and say hi…
