Orange #blogbus schedule - Softwares, Entrepreneurs and an Oklahoma-Style Dinner

SAN FRANCISCO, September 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    With the start of the Orange Blogger Bus Tour
[http://live.orange.com/en/category/high_tech/blogger-bus-tour ] looming, we continue today
our unveiling of the week's schedule. On the Wednesday, we'll be talking to some of the
big names in the Valley, and find out more about one exciting startup in particular.

    The morning will be dedicated to a visit to Adobe [http://www.adobe.com ], the
computer software giants, where Chief Technical Officer Kevin Lynch will give us a brief
about the company's current activities and projects, and share his views about the social
media scene.

    The team will then be going to meet StartX [http://startx.stanford.edu ], a non-profit
organization who aims to accelerate the development of Stanford's top entrepreneurs
through experiential education. Throughout the week, we will be trying to assess whether
innovation is still alive and kicking in the Valley, but this visit should prove to be
particularly interesting as it will give us an idea of the work that is being done to
support and encourage the innovators to thrive in their respective fields. Furthermore we
will be hearing about Xola, a travel community focused on adventure.

    In the afternoon, we'll be splitting up into small groups as one team will head over
to Trend Micro [http://www.trendmicro.ae ], a global leader in cloud security. Following a
presentation with Philip Kwan, Director of Consumer Innovation, with a focus on social and
mobile but also on Trend labs and the general threats which are looming, our bloggers will
take part in a Q&A discussing how the shift to mobile is affecting the users and the
industry. At the same time, another small group will be visiting Broadcom
[http://www.broadcom.com ], global leader and innovator in semiconductor solutions for
wired and wireless communications, as well as a Fortune 500 company.

    For our final stop of the day, we will be going back to San Francisco to find out more
about the up-and-coming Taploid
[http://www.thetaploid.com/?utm_expidb468386-5&utm_referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.fr%2Furl%3Fsa%3Dt%26rct%3Dj%26q%3D%26esrc%3Ds%26source%3Dweb%26cd%3D1%26ved%3D0CCAQFjAA%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.thetaploid.com%252F%26ei%3DuVxQUKjdLZCY1AWam4D4AQ%26usg%3DAFQjCNEqU8XXjqaw_zcOdIYxaLN7hG7cjA%26sig2%3DjFRNR3TdzPXl1J9jKB0Zsg ]
with CEO Redg Snodgrass. The
Taploid uses implicit social data and predictive analytics to deliver fun and sensational
headlines which users can interact with. Hopefully we'll be able to get a demo, as the
first version is still in works at the moment. To cap the day off, we'll be enjoying a
nice Oklahoma-style dinner alongside friends from Venturebeat [http://venturebeat.com ].
