Press Release:
Series 60 Platform Community Awards 2003 � recognition of excellence in the Series 60 Community
The Series 60 Platform Community is setting aside a day to recognize the companies who have made the biggest impact on the Series 60 Platform Community. Awards will be given in five categories that represent the different types of the products and services created for the Series 60 Platform. A jury consisting of members from Nokia Mobile Software and the licensees, such as Nokia Mobile Phones and Siemens, nominated up to 5 companies that best represented the qualities of each category (see categories and nominees below). The selection process was tough and heated � the number of potential nominees was great and varied.
From each category, one company will be awarded a Series 60 Platform Community Award for 2003. The award ceremony will take place at an event to be held at the exclusive Hotel Negresco, in Nice, France, on Tuesday, October 28th, 2003.
The Series 60 Platform Community Awards 2003 is an invitation-only event. The day will start with a business seminar � an update on the Series 60 Platform and business perspective talks by leading Community members. Then, there will be a small expo with top developers and vendors displaying the latest in Series 60 products and services. To cap off this busy day, there is an evening Gala Dinner and Award Ceremony.
Invitations are going out now, and the registration for the event has already started. Space is limited, so if you are interested in participating or would like to get more information, please send an email to <[email protected]>.
