SiRF Technology Holdings has announced that SiRFecosystem's second annual Location 2.0 Summit will be held in San Francisco on September 10, 2008. Bringing together innovators, industry leaders and developers in the location ecosystem, this year's invitation-only event introduces Fast-Pitch presentations and People's Choice awards to highlight innovation in the LBS industry.

SiRF is inviting developers of interesting new LBS applications and technologies to submit their products and services as Fast-Pitch nominees.

"The Location 2.0 Summit brings together global industry leaders who seek to share a vision for the LBS landscape for the coming years," said Kanwar Chadha, founder and vice president of marketing for SiRF. "The Fast-Pitch presentations are a unique opportunity for developers to showcase their innovations to key industry influencers."

After the sessions, participants will get to vote for their favorite Fast-Pitch presentations, and the winners will receive a People's Choice Award during the evening award ceremony.

Call for Entries
The Fast-Pitch presentations are three-minute, high-intensity sessions where developers get to pitch their innovative LBS applications to more than 250 of the top global location industry executives in attendance.

Entries should demonstrate the benefits of using the power of location to enhance the daily lives of individuals, enterprises and communities, and will be judged for inclusion in the Summit on how well they achieve this goal.

Entries are being accepted now through August 15, 2008, and are open to all developers of current or soon-to-be-released cutting-edge location technologies and novel LBS applications. Entries will be judged by Kanwar Chadha and wireless industry analyst, Andrew Seybold - two of the most respected and influential champions of mobile wireless and location innovations.

Three finalists will be chosen for each of the three panel discussion sessions. Finalists will be notified by August 20, 2008 of their selection, and be will provided with instructions for preparing their Fast-Pitch.
