Five billion people have a mobile phone. Today, no single, technological device is more in our hands than the mobile phone – it has become the media through which humans interact. Marko Ahtisaari is the global head of Nokia's design unit, and he is responsible for Nokia’s product and user experience design. He will be sharing Nokia’s thoughts on how design will shape and influence the patterns of human interaction in the future. The event is held in cooperation with Bella Sky Hotel and CODE11. Participants will be able to visit the CODE11 area following the event.
