"As a corporate venture activity with focus on start-ups for  wireless technology and solutions, getting access  to new quality deals is very important for us - the GWVF participation last year has provided us a lot of contacts as well as quality deals for further investment consideration"

"Siemens Mobile Acceleration (SMAC) typically provides more then just funding to start-ups. As part of our investments,  strategic support is even more important.  For the planned 2004 GWVF we also present two of our global portfolio companies with the purpose to get stronger exposure into the Asian market."

- Helmut Struss, General Manager for Greater China, Siemens Mobile Acceleration

"The diversity of GWVF participants lent the event a wide perspective to wireless technologies, giving everyone a clearer view of where they stood to benefit in the developer-user chain. Certainly, as GWVF grows, many more meaningful collaborations will evolve, making it an event that shouldn't be missed"

- Felix Lee, Marketing Director, ADtranet Ltd

"Motorola is delighted to support the Global Wireless Venturing Forum again this year. The objective of the Forum clearly echoes our belief in technological innovation which has always been the heart and lifeblood of Motorola for the last 75 years, and will continue to occupy a key role in our culture, going forward. We look forward to a fruitful time in exchanging our ideas and vision for the wireless future with the speakers and participants at the Forum this year."

- Jeffery Tan, President, Motorola Singapore

"We are standing at the cusp of a technological era. With the proliferation of wireless devices and access technologies, we're closer now than ever to making an always-on connection a reality. We see the future of the mobile communication, where once voice-centric, becoming a lifestyle-centric medium that provides access to information anytime, anywhere, in any form. At Motorola, we term this vision for the wireless future - seamless mobility - one in which consumers enjoy an innovative and integrated wireless communication experience for the home, office and even on the move. We believe that this wireless vision will bring about even greater social and economic impact that what the Internet did today.  As before, the Global Wireless Venturing Forum will be a platform to exchange insights on the future of the wireless industry. I'm glad to be part of it."

- John Edwards, Vice President and General Manager, Asia, Global Telecom Solutions Sector Asia Pacific, Motorola Inc
