Qualcomm Technologies is excited to now expand the Snapdragon 600 series processors to include the newly renamed 8064M (formerly Snapdragon MPQ8064), which had been part of the Snapdragon S4 Prime series processors under the earlier Snapdragon processor tiering structure.
Representative Mike Honda, [D-CA17] is reintroducing the Health Care Innovation and Marketplace Technologies Act (HIMTA). This legislation outlines creative approaches to drive innovation and entrepreneurship in the health information technology sector. At Qualcomm, we believe that mobile communications will help to overcome some of the challenges facing the US healthcare system. By constantly developing new and innovative wireless communication technologies we strive to make all types of systems, including those in healthcare, more accessible, affordable and effective.

Qualcomm’s march toward 1000x data challenge just got a shot in the arm—the FSM99xx family of chipsets. This expands our small cell portfolio and brings our vision of more efficient and cost-effective small cells one step closer.
The Muppets celebrated mobile this week, awarding Qualcomm its annual Corporate Leadership Award for technology advances in early childhood education at the 11th annual Sesame Workshop Gala in New York City.
More than 10,000 aspiring engineers, ages six to 18, recently gathered in St. Louis for some serious competition at the 2013 FIRST Robotics Championships. Teams of students from across the world came, bearing robots they had designed and built themselves. Their goal: to win a prize in a series of challenges that pitted robot against robot… and to have a really good time.
This past week I had the pleasure of signing an MOU with USAID on behalf of Qualcomm. I was joined by Don Steinberg Deputy Administrator for USAID, and I am thrilled with the prospect of this collaboration.
Recently in Chicago, Qualcomm Chairman and CEO Paul Jacobs was named the winner of the 2013 Edison Achievement Award, which recognizes inspirational leaders who are making “a significant and lasting contribution to the world of innovation.”
Zephyr and Qualcomm are working together to reduce patient risk in the hospital and at home.
Wireless Reach was honored to be selected by the GBCHealth Awards Judging Panel as a “Commended Program” in the Partnership/Collective Action category in this year’s annual GBCHealth Awards.
For more than a decade, GBCHealth has been presenting the Business Action on Health Awards to companies that exemplify a spirit of innovation and help set the agenda for addressing today's most important global health challenges.
More than 600 people joined Qualcomm in Silicon Valley this week to hear about “What’s Next in Mobile.” It was Qualcomm’s second annual Bay Area mini-conference. The one-day event featured Qualcomm executives and drew a high-caliber crowd—including industry analysts, media, customers, and potential partners.
“I wanted to hear the road map,” said attendee Jim Eckstrom, a sales director with digital security company Inside Secure. “I got a boatload of information.”
Most of us have it—that drawer full of cords used to charge the various electronic devices used in our daily lives: phones, tablet computers and handheld games to name a few. Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to eliminate these cords? Well there is: wireless power.
I have been the Qualcomm Wireless Reach project manager for our Wireless Access for Health (WAH) program in the Philippines since 2009, so I was thrilled to participate in an event recently in Manila to celebrate the project’s success and announce expansion plans.
How many things look exactly the same as they did 10, maybe 20 years ago? What about 50? If you’re struggling for an answer, just turn to the public education system. While most schools remain in an industrial era model, the U.S. Department of Labor estimates that 65 percent of grade school kids will end up in jobs that haven’t been created yet.[1] To add to that, classroom sizes are continuing to grow as a majority of states are spending less per pupil than they did before the recession.[2]
Not a long ago, when we started talking about small cells, the first question we would always hear was “why do we need small cells, when we have Wi-Fi?” But that has rapidly evolved into “how can we ensure that the interworking between 3G/4G and Wi-Fi is robust and seamless?”
The interworking becomes even more crucial considering the looming 1000x challenge, in which Qualcomm envisions dense deployments of small cells, most of which are integrated with Wi-Fi.
