Mobile Marketing Association encourages regional nominations for industry’s premier Global Mobile Marketing Awards
The Mobile Marketing Association (MMA) (www.mmaglobal.com) has invited nominations for its Sixth Annual Global Industry Awards Program aimed at honouring leading marketers from around the globe who have made mobile a successful media channel. With APAC’s global position as a hotbed for mobile innovation, MMA is encouraging marketers from the region to enter their cutting edge work into this global race. The final deadline to submit nominations is August 20, 2010.
“The MMA Global Awards recognise exceptional companies, people and campaigns worldwide that have made mobile a successful marketing and advertising channel. With a customer base that remains receptive to new mobile technology as well as mobile marketing messages, APAC has hosted some of the most outstanding campaigns in the mobile industry. Asian marketers have been tremendously successful in recognizing and selling mobile as an important and indispensible extension of the current marketing efforts of brands. We are hoping to see greater participation from companies and individuals from APAC at this year’s awards,” said Mr Rohit Dadwal, Managing Director, MMA Asia Pacific Pte Ltd.
Marketers have made some exciting mobile predictions for 2010 and beyond. Mobile video consumption is set to increase significantly. Services that enable video conferencing and the networks and handsets that support it will also proliferate in the coming years. Augmented reality will start playing a larger role in location-based advertising. Proliferation of standardized technology and higher quality camera phones will not only lead to increased adoption of mobile barcodes and coupons, but will also offer a whole new access point to content.
The Awards ceremony will bring together nominees from all parts of the world to share their campaigns and regional perspectives that are reflective of these vibrant times in mobile. Apart from Asia Pacific, the Annual Awards see representation from North America, Central & Latin America, Europe, Africa and Middle East.
