CTIA, which covers all things mobile, attracts more than 40,000 attendees and over 1,000 exhibiters.

Haidar was previously co-founder and CEO of Carbyn, an HTML5 platform that delivers apps, games, email and storage in one unified experience across Net-connected devices. Announced just last week, Synacor recently acquired Carbyn to offer customers a branded platform where their subscribers can enjoy a variety of content and HTML5 applications including video, music, games, newspapers, and magazines seamlessly by signing into their account on any device regardless of operating systems (OS), including Apple iOS, Google Android or Microsoft Windows.
In addition to CTIA, Jaafer also will be speaking at Connecting Vision to Reality 2012, the premier event for CEOs of emerging Canadian technology companies, at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, May 15, at Ryerson University, Toronto, ON.
