About Point Think Tank

Founded by CSR, an industry leader in location-based technology, the idea for Point Think Tank grew out of the “Location 2.0 Summit,” a strategic annual forum held during the annual fall CTIA Wireless show. It was here we tapped into the power generated from a roomful of people who share the same economic and social aspirations for connected location-based technology. Because the industry is evolving at such a rapid pace, we realized an annual summit is not frequent enough to really work together and collaborate to drive innovation. Through Point Think Tank, we can harness our collective thinking in real-time to profitability move the industry forward.

The goals of Point Think Tank initiative:

Commitment to the progress and growth of the connected location industry and academia

Connecting innovative location technologies and companies across horizontal markets

Collaborating to extend member companies value proposition outside their traditional market segment

Contributions that promote and enable a rich ecosystem of connected location solutions

Conversations that foster groundbreaking and transformational connected location concepts

Cooperation to formalize and incorporate new concepts and continue to deliver innovative connected location technologies.

About the Summit

An event that began in 2007, the Locations & Beyond Summit, brings together leaders in the connected location industry ecosystem for half a day of thought provoking discussions.

 The philosophy behind the Summit is our success will require tight collaboration, creative partnerships, complementary products and services and innovative business models. The  Locations and Beyond Summit provides a face-to-face forum to discuss trends, share ideas and map a path to profitability.

 Ultimately the Locations & Beyond Summit is as a catalyst for generating ideas and solutions that create a unified approach to market growth and innovations.
