Schwab IMPACT® 2011, one of the industry’s largest conferences, is set to kick off in less two weeks. On Thursday November 3, I’ll be appearing on a panel along with Daniel Bernstein of MarketCounsel and Mike Byrnes of Byrnes Consulting in a session titled Building a Compliance-Friendly Social Media Strategy.
While preparing for the session, I discovered that Schwab just released a mobile app for the conference for iPhone and iPad. The mobile app contains some useful resources such as the entire conference agenda, maps of the venue and expo area (though they open websites when clicked, so one will need an Internet connection to view maps), and exhibitor and sponsor information.
Conference attendees with a valid login can view and update their personal schedule from within the mobile app (though I personally had issues removing events from my schedule while testing the app). Session surveys can also be completed using the mobile app, eliminating the need to drop paper forms at the back of the room at the conclusion of a session.
