    Saturday Night Live comedian and co-anchor of “Weekend Update” Michael Che will be featured at CTIA Super Mobility 2015. Named as one of Rolling Stones’ 50 Funniest People, Buzzfeed’s 50 Hottest Men in Comedy and Variety’s Top 10 Comics to Watch, Che will report from the keynote stage with his thoughts on wireless news, hot topics and features at the industry’s annual convention.

    CTIA Super Mobility 2015, the largest mobile marketplace in the Western Hemisphere, will be held Sept. 9-11 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas. More than 40,000 people are expected to attend.

    “CTIA Super Mobility is the best show for anyone who wants to create or improve their mobile strategy, since it’s the entire ecosystem under one roof. While wireless technology will certainly be the focal point, it’s also an opportunity to hear from Michael, who is one of America’s funniest people, share his perspective about our mobile-first lives,” said CTIA Vice President and Show Director Robert Mesirow.

    Michael Che joins a lineup of keynote speakers representing the mobile industry’s diverse community, from innovative network providers to disruptors in media, retail and fitness, CTIA-Wireless said.
