Mobile Europe makes two awards annually:
The Gamechanger Award is to recognise a CTO (or equivalent job title) who excels at carrying out the core business but not as usual – creating efficient and effective infrastructure and operations and business models that make use of technologies such as AI, analytics, automation, open platforms and APIs.
The Trailblazer Award recognises the achievement of a CTO (or equivalent job title) whose company offers services beyond connectivity or is pioneering new technology, business and operational models.
The winners will be announced after the invitation-only, virtual roundtable discussion which will take place on 2 October, 2024.
