    iHollywood Forum, Inc. today announced a distinguished slate of

    Opening Plenary Session:

    The Hollywood Connection

    Hollywood content is the secret ingredient that means the
    difference between success and failure for many mobile services --
    from ringtones to mobile TV. We explore what studios and operators
    think are the hottest trends in mobile entertainment, the deals to
    look for, and how to get in the door.

    The one-day summit will be held Feb. 14 during the 3GSM World

    will have up-close access to top speakers from keynotes and panel
    discussions. iHollywood Mobile Europe will also feature an exclusive
    content marketplace allowing attendees to view other registrants in
    advance and set up on-site meetings for interviews, partnerships and
    deal-making. All attendees can also access iHollywood Mobile Europe's
    attendee database of speakers and attendees.

    "In Europe, we will leverage our position as the leading producer
    of digital and mobile entertainment conferences in the U.S. to bring
    Hollywood and Europe together,'' said iHollywood CEO and Co-Founder
    Michael Stroud. "Our goal is to forge cross-Atlantic deals and
    relationships.''
