DALLAS, Sept. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- HYLA Mobile Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Biju Nair will lead a dynamic discussion with industry leaders and visionaries at this year's Mobile Future Forward, highlighting the opportunities in emerging markets that mobile devices and services present for individual users, for countries and regions, and for a variety of industries.
"Over 60 percent of humanity still does not have access to the Internet," said Biju Nair, CTO of HYLA Mobile. "Mobile devices and the connectivity they provide are more often the only way for the unconnected to get connected. This presents tremendous opportunities for the mobile eco-system to communicate, conduct business, showcase products and services, and ultimately, to drive economic engines previously idle or under realized."
