Digital Home

We held several sessions showing you how you could get involved in building a genuine “Digital Home” for Orange customers.


helping you to...understand our vision and strategy for a
Digital Home

by Orange

Monday 15:15 - 16:30
Tuesday 13:45 - 15:00

 

members, download the presentation

 

The Orange vision for a "digital home", is one where :

- multimedia content can be delivered on any device - from TV to PC to mobile phone, at user's convenience, combining personal and public content in a seamless experience.
- broadband and home connectivity transform the inter-personal communication experience.


We explained all this to you and went one step further, highlighting the areas in which we counted on partners to enrich the Digital Home experience (which were expanded upon in the ‘we need’ sessions) :

- device manufacturers : we wanted to provide you with the APIs you need to make your devices and their applications compliant with Orange services, giving you a competitive advantage for Orange customers. And we had a specific challenge for you : reinvent the TV UI with disruptive remote control systems !

- on-device application developers :

- the future belongs to open TV services market place ; you helped us build a TV application shop for open set-top boxes

- our IP phones will not be closed Orange phones : you helped us feature them with attractive data applications

- TV/VOD service solution providers : you helped us find innovative interactive TV/VOD solutions to help our customers navigate through the variety of contents they deal with (Orange content, UGC, third party content). Recommendation is the key!

- Web application developers : we needed YOU twice - to enhance soft-telephony experience on PC, and to make social networks a place where interpersonal communication thrives !

 

helping you to... understand digital content distribution
by Orange

Tuesday 09:15 - 09:45
Wednesday 10:00 - 10:30

 

members, download the presentation


Entertainment content is now digitalized. The digital revolution, which took place for music, has strongly impacted all entertainment content: games, movies, TV, magazines and press.
The generalization of mobile and fixed broadband networks associated with new generation of entertainment communication devices gives huge opportunities to reinvent the distribution and the consumption of such content.

At this stage, we have only discovered the first wave of pioneering services.
MMORPG, delinearization of TV, multisite creation of music, interactive VoD, epaper and magazines are few examples innovation which we could create together.
Orange, with its Content Direction, has became a major actor in the digital content revolution.


we need... your innovative solutions to reinvent TV
by Orange

Tuesday 10:00 - 10:30
Wednesday 11:30 - 12:00

 

  members, download the presentation


We needed... innovative solutions for remote control, tracking consumption, interactive user interface and recommendation engine.

Content availability is key to digital distribution. The customer has a huge range of content to choose from: 200 TV channels, several of thousands of VoD, etc etc,, and the user interface on mobile and TV is not fine-tuned to find the right content  at the right time.

We’re working in the field of personalisation and tracking / recommendation engines to offer – through a simple user interface - the right content at the right time to suit the specific customer’s needs.  And we need your help to do this.


helping you to... understand the new platform from SoftAtHome to develop applications for the Digital Home

by SoftAtHome

Monday 16:45 - 17:15

 

members, download the presentation

 

SoftAtHome delivers an open, portable and manageable platform to Telecom Service Providers, and is currently available on two types of home devices: Home Gateway and TV Set-Top-Box.
Besides enabling both standard and innovative IP and IPTV services, the SoftAtHome platform is open to third-party developers. Developers can use SoftAtHome APIs and SDKs to implement innovative applications for service providers. 

In this session, we explained how SoftAtHome enables 3rd party application developers to enter consumers' homes :

- introducing the SoftAtHome Operating Platform for developers
- how can you work with SoftAtHome ?
- which kinds of applications and services will you be able to develop on the SoftAtHome platform?

- introducing to Dev_Zone, the SoftAtHome developer zone

helping you to... understand the value of developing with UMA
by Orange

Tuesday 18:00 - 18:30
Wednesday 12:15 - 12:45

 

members, download the presentation

 

We explained our thoughts about new generation devices, the opportunity for high bandwidth applications over Wi-Fi and innovative form factors.
We also illustrated Orange success stories in the Fixed-Mobile convergence area as one of the world-leading operators using UMA with no less than 1.2 million devices already sold.

With this in mind, we looked further and shared ideas with you on how we could further improve the fixed-mobile convergence experience with even more continuity between fixed and mobile.

Voice Services

We held several sessions on the Voice Services theme to let you know all we needed in this area.

 

we need... your ideas and solutions to develop the “talking PC” (soft-telephony services)
by Orange

Monday 15:15 - 15:45
Wednesday 11:30 - 12:00


As part of the Orange VoIP strategy, we wanted to develop voice communications at home and on the move. To do that, we had to introduce call features in new devices. The first targeted device is the PC, positioned as a talking PC.

Our objective is to provide a rich call communication suite based on the technical abilities of the PC which offer us an easy-to-integrate environment.

Our rich call communication suite provides features directly linked to voice calls (call management, softphony) and enhanced features (SMS, MMS, conference call, fun …).

 

we need... your call management services and products
by Orange

Monday 12:45 - 13:15
Tuesday 10:00 - 10:30

 

members, download the presentation


Orange’s mobile voice strategy is to offer a great user experience for both the caller and the calling parties, through the launch of new services and products (known as call management), which should stimulate additional communications.

We were interested in meeting 3rd parties that can offer any of these new services and products ... for example, an application on open OS devices, an SIM card applet or a network based solution.  

 

we need... your help to leverage community usage on mobile phones
by Orange

Tuesday 10:45 - 11:15
Wednesday 10:45 - 11:15

 

members, download the presentation

 

The new role of the address book: to tighten social network members’ relationship thanks to mobile communications.

We needed you to bring your solutions, and help us answer to the following questions:

- how can we take advantage of the new ways of communicating in Social Networks to enrich current services?

- what new services can stimulate a user to communicate more directly with selected members of his “real” or web social networks?

- one of the known methods to merge the Social Network world into the mobile communications world is by enriching the Mobile Address Book by newsfeed or presence. Are there any other mechanisms that can influence a mobile user?

we need... your best in class platform integration for optimal customer experience
by Orange

Tuesday 10:45 - 11:15


Key Orange applications and services work seamlessly across multiple platforms and devices in order to deliver a complete end-to-end customer experience. Orange Photo and Orange TV are two such examples.
We wanted to hear about the exciting applications that were intimately integrated with the device platforms. The ability to integrate the service across multiple platforms in a consistent way is key and is a real challenge.

In this session we explained what we need from you and the route our current services took in order to be launched. Lastly we wanted to highlight the growing opportunities for you to work with us on delivering multi platform services.

let’s talk about... Orange and the Open mobile ecosystem
by Orange

Tuesday 17:15 - 17:45


Orange’s vision is for an open mobile community which delivers richer mobile services, more affordable devices and a better experience for our customers. We believe that, to deliver the kind of services our customers want, both now and in the future, it is essential that operators, vendors and developers work together closely to establish consistent, open environments that positively encourage innovation and reduce fragmentation.

We helped you to understand how we were managing the end-to-end customer experience amidst a proliferation of new and increasingly complex OS platforms.

This popular Orange Partner Camp Venture Capital session was back continuing its tradition of setting the stage for what entrepreneurs and investors could expect from the wireless market over the coming year. This distinguished panel of venture investors was assembled to assess trends in the wireless industry and identify the nascent market segments of interest to early stage investors.

 

The Venture Industry in 2007 had its biggest investment year since 2001. 2008 continued to be active buoyed by the creation of the iFund & the Blackberry Partners Fund. Interest in mobile companies has never been hotter. Will the dollars continue to flow to start-ups in 2009? If so, where? This panel of leading VCs gave their views of the mobile industry and what they were looking for across investment areas. How are VCs planning on staying ahead in a down market? How could startups approach VCs in light of a more conservative stance?

Mobile application development needs to consider the unique usage patterns of mobile device users.  In addition, hardware limitations and constraints impact the behaviour and performance of mobile applications.

let’s open our minds... to the complexity of social
networks dataportability 

by Orange

Wednesday 10:45 - 11:15

 

members, download the presentation


With the multiplication of social network services, we have to transfer our data and ask our contacts to become our "friends" again and again, putting stress on the network... Dataportability is becoming an important issue, with many initiatives from different actors, several problems still need to be resolved!

 

let’s open our minds... to why we are so shameless in internet social networks

by Orange

Monday 12:45 - 13:15


We can have 200, 300 or even more friends in Facebook or other social networks. To get them and to keep them in our circle of friends we need to post photos, to update our status, and to show a little bit of ourselves. Why are we doing that and what are the consequences on our digital social life?

 

let’s open our minds... to web 2.0 and the rise of a new
innovation model

by Orange

Monday 16:45 - 17:15

 

members, download the presentation


Information technology has known a wave of innovations from the last 20 to 30 years. Generic tools at the center of IT explain this wave of innovations based on the co-invention or co-innovation between different actors. In a first step, this co-innovation was vertical (Intel and Microsoft) or centred on big players but, with the web 2.0 we are perhaps at the beginning of a new model of innovation, open and more co-operative.
