Ericsson Developer Connection (former Ericsson Mobility World Developer Porgram) opens the telecom world to IT developers. Ericsson helps developers to create applications that incorporate telecommunication network capabilities, such as location-based services, charging, messaging and presence, with sustainability in mind.

Internet and telecom networks are merging into all-IP networks. Consumers expect to have multimedia services available at all times wherever they are, via any screen, whether on a mobile phone, a PC or a TV. This new, dynamic business landscape presents both opportunities and challenges to developers. 

To help developers create the next generation of converged multimedia services, Ericsson Developer Connection provides:

• Technical documentation
• Software development kits (SDKs) such as Service Development Studio – a tool for developing and testing converged multimedia applications based on IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS)
• Test services
• Developer support
• Discussion forums with blogs
• Training and videos
• Invitations to events and competitions

Technical, business and sales support is offered by Ericsson Developer Connection and its global network of expert centers. Members may deepen their involvement with Ericsson and become a partner with the company.

Applications offered by partners are then marketed by Ericsson and presented to operators around the world. This opens up a phenomenal marketing and distribution channel for the developers that are about to enter the telecom world.

Ericsson Developer Connection promotes openness, collaboration and standardization. It is an initiative that benefits all players in the new communication industry, including operators, handset manufacturers, media companies, leading IT companies and application developers, and telecom network vendors. Ericsson Developer Connection helps operators identify and implement new and profitable services, matching their needs with the offerings of content and application providers. With the launch of new converged multimedia services, Ericsson is prepared to meet the increased demand for higher bandwidth and more efficient network equipment.
