Smaato Announce VC Partners for Annual Award
Last week, Smaato announced VC partners for its annual Mobile Advertising award (an award I’m proud to sit on the judging panel for). The winner of the award will get to meet the following VCs; Frank Boehnke (Wellington), Tim Chang (Norvest Ventures), Niall Davis (aeris CAPITAL), Tim Draper (Draper Fisher Jurvetson), Joerg Sievert (SAP Ventures) and Frédéric Veyssière (Innovacom). In addition, they will get invites to MWC in Barcelona, a free booth at Camerjam’s M-Publishing New York (November 2010) and M-Days (January 2011).
