Social Network & Community Mania:

Exploring Business Models and Investment Value

Who will win in the battle of mobile social networks? Is mobile simply a “feature” for existing networks that already have tens of millions of users or is it unique enough that the billions of data-capable phones need something different?

  • Traditional online vs. pure mobile models (on-deck/off-deck)
  • Valuation of users and company
  • Opportunities, risks and implications
