Dr. Paul Jacobs, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Qualcomm, will present the preshow keynote address this year at 6:30 p.m. Monday, January 7, in The Venetian’s Palazzo Ballroom. Dr. Jacobs’ keynote will feature Qualcomm’s new Born Mobile campaign that addresses mobile technology’s role in the connected mobile world. Qualcomm has mobile computing in its DNA, and we look forward to hearing Dr. Jacob’s vision of the future for both the generation born with a tablet in hand, and the rest of us who are becoming more mobile each day. This keynote demonstrates the crucial role that mobile technologies have at the International CES and increasingly throughout the world.
