The MEF Minute team have just landed back from Bangalore, India where the inaugural MEF Global Forum Mobile First Markets took place. 200+ members and delegates came together to learn fascinating insights into the mobile opportunity across South East Asia, Middle East, Africa and of course India.

In the week that saw the launch of the new Indian Government’s Digital India Week #MEFGF Bangalore gave delegates access to some of the exciting innovations happening locally and across the region. 50+ speakers including Amazon, Micromax, Ola, Baidu, Deezer, Twitter, LINE, Mozilla, Yahoo and Hungama discussed the ecosystem requirements for innovation and monetization in so-called emerging markets.

We will be sharing some of the delegate interviews and insights in a series of posts here on the MEF Minute in the coming weeks, so stay tuned. Meanwhile check out the photos from the conference as well as the beautiful networking evening hosted by Mahindra Comviva at the 5 Star venue.

A big thanks to our sponsors Mozilla, Mahindra Comviva, Nazara, Blippar and Bango as well as event partners GrowthEnabler, Quartz, Radiolink Communications and IAMAI.
