Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) May 23, 2010 – It’s big. It’s important. It’s why RECon has chosen a purposely-built, mobile marketing app developed by Toronto-based Mobile Fringe.

An estimated 30,000 will attend RECon 2010, the global retail real estate convention, hosted by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) May 23-25 in Las Vegas. Many of those attending, represent the world’s leading developers, retailers, brokers, financial institutions, product suppliers, service companies and municipalities.

“Mobile Fringe created an app for our Fusion Conference this past February in Chicago that provided our attendees with a tremendous amount of pertinent information in a streamlined and user-friendly manner, enhancing their on-site experience,” said Tim McGuinness, staff vice president of global trade expositions for ICSC. “We were so pleased with the success of this app that we asked Mobile Fringe to create an app for RECon, our largest conference,” added McGuinness.

Sorge Sorge, CEO Mobile Fringe added, “The ICSC, RECON mobile app will work on all smartphones, has the complete conference agenda, an exhibit floor map and details about the hotel.

“It also lists all of the exhibitors and sponsors. Attendees can stay connected with our social media tools – Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.. And, it even has GPS directions to the hotel.”

“The real estate industry, specifically property managers and retailers are the core focus for our mobile marketing company,” states Sorge. “We are very familiar with the business and marketing requirements of ICSC members, having worked with them previously. Furthermore, a number of member companies are also clients of Mobile Fringe. Mobile Fringe understands this segment better than any other mobile marketer.”

Last year Mobile Fringe developed the Toronto Eaton Centre mobile marketing app for Cadillac Fairview. The Toronto Eaton Centre, located in downtown Toronto is one of Canada’s most recognized shopping malls. Within the last couple of months Mobile Fringe launched a 2nd retail shopping mall app, this one for Oxford Properties and its prestigious Yorkdale Shopping Centre.
