There are Mobile Developer Hubs all over the world! This new WIP Resource will highlight these Hubs and feature developer companies and the many resources available to mobile developers/companies in each region. Information includes the economic impact of mobile development, mobile events and mobile associations/developer meetups. Regional Hubs are managed by a Mobile Association/Organization within each Region. If you would like to manage the Regional Developer Hub in your area, please contact us. A Regional Hub can be a country, a state/province or a city.
Whether you are looking for incubator space, venture capital or a new location for your company, this new resource will help point the way! All companies in the WIP company directory will automatically become part of a Regional Hub once it is developed for their region.
