Mobile Monday Peer Awards back in Barcelona for Mobile World Congress

One of the most interesting events from last year 3GSM conference in Barcelona (now renamed Mobile World Congress) is back in the city. The Mobile Monday Awards are going to be held on Monday 11th of February at 2:30pm in the brand new Espacio Movistar. Many thanks to my colleagues from Telefónica Móviles for sponsoring and providing the venue and to Rudy and the team for putting together an excited program, I hope that this becomes a tradition. This year the format will be slightly different but I do not want to steal the thunder from Rudy so just say that Mr. Pekka Ala-Pietila, former president at Nokia Corporation and currently chief executive officer of Blyk Corporation, a virtual mobile operator in the UK, will be one of the keynote speakers together with Luis Jorge Romero, the director of Innovation and Standard at Telefónica Spain. Like last year, I will be at the jury of the awards so if you want to get to know the hottest mobile startups (finalist are now being picked in each city) please drop by and say hello.
