TechCrunch is hosting a Roundtable and Meetup at Mobile World Congress today. The live stream is posted above.

“TechCrunchTalk: Mobile 2.0 – Where next?” features an afternoon of panel discussions with mobile startups and the investment community.

2009 promises to be the year many of the predictions made about the rise of mobile may start to come true. Startups in the space are poised to take advantage of affordable mobile Internet access and sophisticated handsets like the iPhone. The question is, can they do it? That’s what TechCrunchTalk will seek to tease out from the assembled entrepreneurs and the venture capitalists that back them.

The topics will focused around a number of themes, including:

- What will be the mobile trends over the coming year?
- What are VC’s looking for?
- Can the power of the operators really be disrupted?
- What value can be created in the mobile world in difficult economic times?

To help us explore these questions we’ll have on hand:

Panel 1

Mobile Disruption

- What are VC’s looking for in mobile?
- Can the power of the operators really be “disrupted”?
- Will the rise of application stores drive innovation?
- How will the new wave of handsets change the game?

Davor Hebel, Fidelity Ventures
Ben Holmes, Index Ventures
Bob Last, SVP Taptu
Ken Johnstone, Co-Founder INQ Mobile

Panel 2

Mobile Eco-system

- What will be the mobile trends over the coming 5 years?
- What value can be created in the mobile world in difficult economic times?
- What kinds of mobile startups going will break through in the next 5 years?
- What will consumers kill for?

Peter Vesterbacka, Founder, Some Bazaar
Marc Rougier, Co-founder, Goojet
Andrew Scott, Founder, Rummble
Jennifer Grenz, VP of Marketing, Shozu

[...] There are however a few cases where we couldn’t believe our eyes at how Touch UI can be used so poorly. Regardless, it’s encouraging that more manufacturers are considering the simplicity of touch; it’ll just take a while to polish it and make it most user-friendly rather than purely “flash, spin and float around” eye candy. Just before MWC, we published a whitepaper on Touch UI, which Bob Last mentioned on the TechCrunchTalk panel on Mobile Disruption. [...]
