The GSMA’s Global Mobile Awards 2012 will reflect the growing importance of mobile apps in the industry, with three new awards in the Apps of the Year category, sponsored by Conduit. Two of the new awards will be based on global downloads and usage, while a third – the Most Innovative Mobile App – is open to any application. As in 2011, there will be a Judges’ Choice – Best Overall Mobile App award decided by an independent panel of experts. Nominations are now open and close on 30 November, with judging taking place in December. The awards will be presented on 28 February 2012 at the GSMA Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
