Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. (QuIC) and the Symbian
Foundation today announced that QuIC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Qualcomm Incorporated, has joined the Symbian Foundation and has been
appointed to the Symbian Foundation board of directors. QuIC will
support the Symbian Foundation with active participation on the board
of directors and each of the four councils that govern the
development of the Symbian platform.

QuIC's charter is to focus on optimizing open source software for
use with Qualcomm technology. QuIC brings to the Symbian Foundation a
wealth of knowledge and expertise in open source and, as a Symbian
Foundation board member, QuIC is committed to working with its fellow
board members for Symbian's continued commercial success. QuIC joins
wireless operators AT&T, Vodafone and NTT DOCOMO; silicon providers
ST Microelectronics NV and Texas Instruments; and handset
manufacturers Samsung, Sony Ericsson and Nokia on the Symbian
Foundation board.

The Symbian platform comprises a complete, open source mobile
operating system, user interfaces, middleware and key mobile
applications used in more than 300 million smartphone devices
worldwide. It includes the critical software elements a manufacturer
or operator needs to build a mobile device. Symbian was built for
mobile and enables mobile developers to use open SDKs to create
compelling mobile applications that take full advantage of all
Symbian-based handsets.

"QuIC joining the Symbian Foundation and the Symbian Foundation
board demonstrates our commitment to provide expertise and to
optimize technology with the Symbian platform," said Rob Chandhok,
president of QuIC. "High-level operating systems offer the potential
to unleash tremendous innovation and we are excited to help advance
that process on the Symbian platform. Working as part of the Symbian
Foundation, QuIC looks forward to participating in technology
innovation in areas such as multi-core CPU support, Web browser and
application enhancement, and CDMA and LTE support."

"The Symbian Foundation welcomes QuIC, whose membership and board
participation brings us significant wireless technology expertise and
whose leadership will act as an important catalyst for the growth of
the Symbian ecosystem," said Lee Williams, executive director of the
Symbian Foundation. "On behalf of the Symbian Foundation board, we
look forward to collaboratively evolving and rapidly expanding the
Symbian open source software platform with QuIC."
