A doua zi la MWC 2013 - Premiile GSMA Global Mobile Awards

Astazi la Mobile World Congress – MWC 2013 – industria de mobile si servicii mobile au sarbatorit a 18-a editie a premiilor Global Mobile Awards GSMA. Gazda show-ului din acest an, actorul si scriitorul britanic, David Walliams, a numit premiile GSMA Global Mobile ca fiind “premiile Oscar ale industriei mobile” si nu era departe de adevar. Premiile GSMA Global Mobile Awards recunosc eforturile din spatele aplicatiilor, gadget-urilor si serviciilor mobile care uimesc si chiar salveaza viata utilizatorilor, dar mai ales care contribuie la evolutia continua a industriei mobile.

In acest an reprezentantii Global Mobile Awards au recunoscut ca inregistrat cel mai mare numar de inscrieri, peste 600 de inscrieri si nominalizari pentru 37 de premii. Juriul a fost compus dintr-un grup independent de experti, jurnalisti, analisti, academicieni si, in unele cazuri, reprezentanti ai operatorilor mobili. Dupa dezbateri numele castigatorilor au fost anuntate astazi, la pranz, la evenimentul de premiere, unde s-au inghesuit jurnalisti, analisti, experti si reprezentanti ai companiilor nominalizate.
