With most new content and application storefronts being web-based, a developer’s audience now extends beyond their home country. This session will help educate developers on how best to think about creating and marketing applications that can be relevant to a broad audience of customers around the world with little or no localization. Mr Ojanperä will also discuss ways to help optimize your content to be discovered more easily by your target customers. Sponsored by Nokia.
