Abstract

Mobile application has become an important parameter when it comes to presenting possibilities for small handheld devices such as mobile phones. One of the trends within mobile application development is applications for special events such as sports, conferences and TV shows. The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss the challenges of developing event applications with a strong involvement of users. The concepts and characteristics of the Living Lab approach has been used to develop an event application for the Copenhagen Fashion Festival 2010. As part of the development process, an application was developed for the Copenhagen held COP15 conference held in December 2009. The project shows that the Living Lab approach is challenging in relation to development of mobile event applications, and that the concept of stakeholders involved in the process could be modified to involve the right segments of potential users.
