4 incredible days at the 2009 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and two awards!
APiLINX team would like to warmfuly thank those of you who came to our booths or sent kind messages expressing your interest in our activity and offering.
Being on the French Pavillion Hall2- lots of good looking companies and a very positive collective effort from UBI France and local PACA Region players including MDER, Team Côte d'Azur and Pôle SCS as well as Telecom Valley - brought us the pleasure to welcome and demonstrate to Mme Anne-Marie Idrac, French Minister of Foreign Commerce.
APiLINX has been twice awarded (press release to come):
- As short-listed in the "Most Innovative True Mobile Start-Up" by the GSMA, we received a Special Mention Prize from the Jury. The jury awarded APiLINX business model, innovation in mobile e-health and market potential. This is a unique situation as no such prize were given in the previous years. The jury panel members were Intel Capital, Telecom Italia, SK telecom, Orange and O2. We were present with our booth in the Innovation Zone HAll 7.
- And as finalist of the GEMALTO SIMagine Competition out of 182 innovative entries, we received for our APiCARDIO application running on the SIM card and using NFC a collective prize and a special award form Inside Contactless .. with a nice check! Being present on GEMALTO's booth Hall8 for the four days gave us a positive exposure as well. The jury panel members were Sun microsystems, Samsung, Telefonica, Gemalto, Telecom Italia and Orange.
For a Start up such as APiLINX, it was a very rewarding journey to "Ciudad Condal" and an incredible exposure in such a mediatised environment
See you all in Barcelona 2010!
