An important update on the Mobile Premier Awards (MPA), the number one global mobile innovation competition organized by Rudy de Waele and the team at dotopen. After sifting through a record 600 submissions from four continents, the list is now down to 48 startups. These startups represent the best in grassroots innovation as chosen by their peers in partnership with MobileMonday, the global community of mobile professionals. The nominees were chosen by participating MobileMonday chapters from over 250 participating startups.
As a media partner and a member of the international jury I look forward to joining the other judges on the panel this week to select 20 finalists from the list. Only these 20 finalists will pitch their idea, application or project at the Mobile Premier Awards event that takes place in the Petit Palau of Palau de la Musica on February 15, 2010 in front of investors, operators, media companies, peer entrepreneurs, and press and influential bloggers.
