The summer of 2011 is proving to be a bustling season of activity for the Mobile Marketing Association (MMA), which just announced yet another addition to the summer calendar – but this event is invite-only.
The MMA has scheduled it’s first ever “Mobile CEO and CMO Summit” for July 24th through the 26th at the Casa de Campo resort in the Dominican Republic.
