Alex Young has been involved in online for over a decade, mov­ing from instruc­tional design, visual and inter­ac­tion design through to project and peo­ple man­age­ment within the edu­ca­tion, train­ing, TV and telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions fields. This jour­ney has instilled a sense of pur­pose to strive for an opti­mal user expe­ri­ence for every solu­tion or chal­lenge that presents itself.

As part of Mobile Online Business, Alex is focused on how to help com­pa­nies com­mu­ni­cate bet­ter with their cus­tomers by under­stand­ing the per­va­sive­ness of emerg­ing tech­nolo­gies and the ways to best utilise these to com­mu­ni­cate with their customers.

Rob has been mod­el­ing Information Architectures and IA dri­ven busi­ness mod­els since 1989. As the tech­nol­ogy land­scape evolved he moved from dig­i­tal pre-​​press, to inter­ac­tive media, to net­work appli­ca­tions and finally to per­va­sive com­put­ing. Now he has joined Mobile Online Business (MOB) and is focused upon explor­ing life after Convergence — a place where objects and their inter­faces Diverge allow­ing you to con­trol them any­where, any­time. His pri­mary goal is to pro­vide MOB’s clients with hands on, real world expe­ri­ence with this intan­gi­ble new world.
