doc.: IEEE /080r0 Submission September 1999 Ian Gifford, M/A-COMSlide 3 Objectives of the WPAN Marketing Entity Collect and maintain the application and usage scenarios generated by the CFAs. Guide the formulation of documentation that clearly & distinctly differentiates the purposes and services of the various IEEE WPAN standards Support the dissemination of information about IEEE Working Group activities internally (among 802 working groups) and externally (among the electronics industry). Facilitate task groups in reaching convergence and consensus on technical requirements. Determine how best to promote the public demonstration of interoperability between products built using standards. Create and maintain liaisons with other selected industry marketing groups (e.g. Bluetooth, HomeRF) and standards bodies (e.g ETSI). Foster two-way communications between suppliers and consumers of WPAN products. Encourage and foster creation of value-added industry marketing groups as appropriate (e.g. Gigabit Ethernet Alliance,

doc.: IEEE /080r0 Submission September 1999 Ian Gifford, M/A-COMSlide 4 We make the following motion: The P WG will form a Study Group to investigate how to successfully market WPAN standards. The marketing study group will initially be commissioned between July ‘99 and Nov ‘99 and report findings and recommendations at each meeting. Key areas to be studied are : –Types of and Value of marketing –Organization of requirements as embodied in CFAs –Actionable “Objectives”, priorities, deliverables, assignments and schedules

If these discussions go forward, then the Bluetooth SIG would like ETSI and IEEE coordinates their efforts so that both standards interoperate.” Jim Kardach, 15Jul99
