Many people in the local mobile industry have expressed to us that they felt like “a fish out of water” believing their mobile company was one of maybe a handful of mobile companies in the Portland metro area. But as MoMoPDX is showing, there is a rather extensive mobile community right here in the Portland / Vancouver metro area.

Thanks to one such company, MapWith.Us of Vancouver, Washington, we are able to show you just how many companies there are. At the time of this post, we’ve listed only 14 of the companies about which we know, but keep checking back as we’ll be adding more.

If you don’t see your company listed, send us an email to info@momopdx.org along with your website, contact address and brief description and we’ll literally put you on the map.

When people think about where the mobile and wireless industry thrives, a number of regions spring to mind: Scandinavia has been a leader in wireless technology development; the Seattle area has its share of wireless companies as does New Jersey; of course there’s the Silicon Valley. Often lost in the mix is Portland, Oregon. But Portland has a thriving mobile industry with a number of important players and is also where a growing number of important trade editors and reporters call home.

To help promote the local mobile industry and enhance the business environment to keep it thriving, a group of Portland-based industry people met at CTIA and committed to start a local chapter of Mobile Monday.

Mobile Monday Portland — or MoMoPDX — is intended to network together local individuals and companies within the local mobile space.  MoMoPDX is about sharing ideas, networking, education, business development and social interaction.  One Monday every month there will be a MoMoPDX event.  The events will include presentations and panel discussions from those people in our industry with unique mobile expertise and experience.  Each event will also provide attendees ample time to network and socialize.

MoMoPDX is now seeking members, sponsor organizations, media partners and researching venues with an aim to begin holding events this summer.  Anyone interested in MoMoPDX is encouraged to sign up at our Yahoo! Groups page and follow us on Twitter:
