The Jury consisting of Sergei Samokrik (MTS Ukraine), Roman Savvin (Kyivstar), Natalia Lymar' (life :)), Tatiana Usenko (Beeline), Sirous Kavehercy (Acision) and Eric Franke, the event moderator (now an independent consultant on the CIS market formerly running large telecom companies in Kyiv and Moscow) noted the novelty of each presented project as well as high level of the speakers' preparation. The event guests representing all major players of the mobile market asked each speaker a lot of tricky questions paying special attention to prime cost of the presented solutions, the cost of services for final users, convenience and availability of each solution for current subscribers of Ukrainian mobile operators.
It should be noted that the contest winners deserved their title by right as they managed to present the most interesting for Ukrainians solutions. Thus, mobile mail by Point Com allows getting messages from several e-mail addresses, working with address book and attached files of various formats, setting frequency of receiving SMS-notifications as well as “working with mail during vacation in any part of the world which removes the necessity of bringing laptop with you everywhere” as mentioned Arkady Mazin, Director of Point Com. UKRSHOP.COM, mobile discount systems, from Unicom Systems was chosen by the jury members as the best project for mass market owing to which brands and their fans get more mutual pleasure and benefits from loyalty programs, discount systems and targeted mobile marketing. Besides, users of mobile discount system don't need to carry a pile of discount plastic cards with them. And finally, video communication from Utel became the audience's favorite due to the possibility of not only hearing but also seeing your friends and close people which was demonstrated by the Utel representatives in real time during their presentation.
Also at Mobile Monday Ukraine Anniversary event Irina Piven' representing IKS-Consulting spoke about this year tendencies and market changes. According to Irina the major events on the Ukrainian telecom market became saturation of mobile communication market (penetration by the beginning of 2007 was 105%), activation in 3G segment, quality improvement and cost reduction of mobile Internet services, test launch of mobile TV which is forecast to be launched in revenue service in 2008.
Organizers and constant Mobile Monday visitors hope that Mobile Monday contests will become a good tradition due to which the best solutions will be always noted by experts and potential users while the market leaders will have an opportunity to share valuable experience with their colleagues.
