Paul Jacobs, the CEO of Qualcomm on stage during the Uplinq Keynote
[Uplinq] Dr. Paul Jacobs, Qualcomm?s CEO, has introduced mobile computing as a ?force of social change?, as he referred to the recent events in the middle east during which people ?armed only with mobile phones? could document facts on the ground and share them with the world, instantly.
And that?s only the beginning. Qualcomm estimates that data usage will grow by up to 12X by 2015. The future will be dominated by both HSPA+ and LTE networks it seems. Both networks are powered by Qualcomm technologies.
Yet, Qualcomm reminds the Uplinq attendees that feature phones (?non smartphones?) will still represent 500M units in 2015. Although they are not sexy this segment still represents a huge opportunity in the industry. Paul Jacobs calls developers to cease their ?moment? and build apps that can reach ?hundreds of millions?.
