Swedish software company Telepo has been nominated for the 2007
European Information and Communications Technology Grand Prize, which
recognises companies with high technology and business potential. The
nomination follows Telepos success last week in Barcelona, where it
received the GSM Association 2007 Award for Best Mobile Enterprise
Product or Service.
The European Information and Communications Technology Prize is one of
Europes most coveted technology prizes. It is supported by the
European Commission as part of its efforts to promote Europes ICT
industry and boost growth. A total of 20 finalists have been selected.
From these, three winners will be selected, with prize money of
200,000 (134,000) for each of the winners.
All 20 nominated companies will be presented at the European ICT Prize
exhibition at CeBIT in Hanover, where the winners will be announced by
European Commissioner Mrs Viviane Reding on March 16.
We have received remarkable recognition lately for our converged
business communication solution says Telepo CEO Lars-Michal Paqvaln.
This month alone, we announced that leading telecom vendor Ericsson
has licensed our software, and we won the 2007 GSMA Award in Barcelona.
Being nominated for the 2007 European ICT Grand Prize is another great
achievement.
