Awards in this category include the Best Ultra Low-Cost Handset, and also the Best Use of Mobile for Social and Economic Development.
The GSMA’s Mobile Innovation Forum – sponsored by Ericsson - also returns to encourage and promote small companies with big ideas in the mobile space. There are two Awards at this year’s Forum – for Most Innovative Mobile Application or Content, and for Most Innovative Technology Development.
