4G WiMAX Developers Symposium at Stanford University

I am looking forward to attending the 4G WiMAX Symposium at Stanford University tomorrow. As you can see from the agenda below, Clearwire and their investors (Sprint, Intel, Comcast, Time Warner Cable) will be well represented. This looks to be an interesting follow up to the Clear 4G Innovation Network Workshop held earlier this year at the Santa Clara Convention Center.

Look for my follow up report in the next few days.
