Developer opportunity with Mozilla Lab

Wednesday, February 1,2011
 
JOIN US FOR A MORNING WITH MOZILLA AS THEY DISCUSS DEVELOPER OPPORTUNITIES
 
Currently set to launch in spring 2012, Mozilla's App Marketplace will target 450M users and be accessible regardless of browser, OS or device. Mozilla invites developers and publishers who are considering and/or currently developing HTML5 apps to learn about opportunities with the Mozilla Labs App Project and Mozilla's new App Marketplace.
Come meet Mozilla's team for an interactive briefing session that will cover developing for HTML5, submitting apps to the App Project, criteria for selection as well as features of the App Marketplace. Mozilla is interested in all types of apps, including games, media, social networks, productivity tools, etc.

If you are also interested in a one-on-one meeting with Mozilla, please email Victoria Hayes and provide a short profile of your company and include any specific interests with Mozilla.
Our special thanks to Fasken Martineau for all their assistance in organizing and hosting this event at their venue.

  ABOUT THE MOZILLA LABS APPS PROJECT
The Mozilla Labs Apps project enables developers to create rich HTML5 app experiences that run across multiple devices and form factors (desktop, mobile, tablet, etc.) using Web standards and open technologies such as HTML5, CSS and JavaScript. Furthermore, it aims to create a rich distributed ecosystem of HTML5 app stores, including a marketplace operated by Mozilla. Mozilla aims to put the developer back in control of every aspect of the app experience — from easy development to distribution to direct customer relationship management.
