GENEVA, Dec 03, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
The World Economic Forum today announced that Amobee has been
selected as a Technology Pioneer 2010 for its accomplishments as an
innovator of the highest caliber, and whose mobile advertising
technologies and business model will have a deep impact on business
and society. Amobee is a global provider of mobile advertising
solutions.
Amobee was evaluated by 58 global technology experts appointed by the
World Economic Forum and has been recognized for its new unified media
system enabling the funding of mobile content and communications
through advertising revenues. To be selected by the Forum, a company
must be involved in the development of life-changing technology
innovations and have the potential for a long-term impact on business
and society. In addition, it must demonstrate visionary leadership
and show signs of being a long-standing market leader with proven
technology.
Previous Technology Pioneers include Google, Infosys, Mozilla
Corporation, and Amyris Biotechnologies. This is the 11th anniversary
of the Technology Pioneers program of the Forum, which aims to
recognize companies at the forefront of technology and innovation.
"We are proud to have won this award recognizing Amobee's technology
as it underscores our efforts to deliver game-changing solutions to
the mobile advertising industry," said Zohar Levkovitz, co-founder
and CEO of Amobee. "We remain committed to serving the mobile needs
of global operators, as well as top brands and media buyers that are
reaching out to mobile users with targeted advertising."
"Entrepreneurship, innovation and technology have always played a
key role in shaping and improving society. This proves to be even
more the case during times of crisis, similar to the one the world
faced this past year during the biggest recession in almost a
century. New companies are already planting the seeds of recovery and
the next wave of growth and progress," said Andre Schneider, Managing
Director and Chief Operating Officer of the World Economic Forum.
