The event, in hon­or of Mobile Mar­ket­ing Week, brought togeth­er the crème de la crème in mobile and dig­i­tal media to cel­e­brate anoth­er suc­cess­ful and excit­ing year in the indus­try. With cock­tails and appe­tiz­ers in hand, atten­dees mixed and min­gled with exec­u­tives, build­ing con­nec­tions and par­tic­i­pat­ing in a spe­cial speed net­work­ing event. 

New York City—where Women in Wire­less head­quar­ters is based — kicked off the event at the glam­orous Thomp­son Hotel Rooftop Bar (spon­sored by MobileFuse) with Co-founder Veroni­ka Son­sev intro­duc­ing Women in Wire­less as an orga­ni­za­tion ​‘focused on empow­er­ing and devel­op­ing female lead­ers in the mobile & dig­i­tal space.’
