- Emerging 802.16 trends and technology solutions,
- WiMAX Certified interoperability testing and deployment,
- Best-practices in 802.16 technology deployment,
- Profiting from broadband wireless business solutions.

According to Eliot Weinman, Founder and President of Trendsmedia, As 802.16 continues to gain momentum and companies begin delivering technology and solutions to the market, it is imperative that providers and end-users have a focused source of world-class content and unbiased information. Trendsmedias WiMAXTrends.com and WiMAX World Conference and Exposition are the worlds first integrated media products that track the emergence and growth of the WiMAX market."

802.16 holds the promise to transform the way wireless broadband is delivered, and to support a wide range of new business and consumer applications. New interoperable products will soon be delivered to the market through the efforts of the WiMAX Forum and its nearly 100 members.
