There is a new and very cool mobile organization brewing in Canada and you can help them out. The MEIC (Mobile Experience Innovation Centre) is a partnership between wireless industry players (big, small and new entrants), academic institutions and government (OMDC) trying to establish a new centre for mobile research, agile prototyping and business development, centered in Ontario. Great idea and we should hope to see more of these activities in Canada

MEIC is being led through OCAD by Michele Perras and Sara Diamond the president of OCAD. The centre is just starting out (no link cause the website isn’t up yet) with plans for a launch early next year.

How you can contribute is take the MEIC industry survey to help them shape the future of the centre. The survey is geared towards anyone in the content/services industry, design, engineering, academia, industry executives, managers or business owners with a significant focus on mobile. Focus is on Ontario but not exclusive to. From the MEIC:

As we are looking for a broad respondent audience, please complete the survey yourself and forward the survey to your industry colleagues and peers. We will be promoting the survey with the major wireless/mobile publications and groups as well.

The survey will be active only until October 31, 2008

As a bonus everyone who fully completes the survey will get access to the findings when the results are published. Go to it!

Full disclosure: WirelessNorth is a partner and supporter of MEIC.
