7月30日 ISVs reviewed for SingTel ProjectThe deadline for ISVs to submit their materials for the Connected Services Accelerator Program's Mobile SingTel Project was last Friday (July 25th), so now SingTel and Microsoft are looking through the proposals for compliance to GSMA standards, innovation and marketablity, in the Supply Chain Management arena.
The selected ISV(s) will be notified soon, so there is a lot of excitement generated around that process. There were nearly 30 submissions from all over the world. Singapore and greater Seattle, the UK, Sri Lanka, India, Germany and Malaysia were among the home bases for submitting ISVs. How cool is that?
For the next Project under the Accelerator Program (to be anounced in a matter of months), I think I'll put pins on a map of the world - just to see how far the interest spreads. If you are an ISV that did not have a SCM application, please check back with us - the next Project may be perfect for your application!
7月17日 Mobile Connected Services Accelerator ProjectNot an ISV with a Supply Chain Management background? There will be more Accelerator Projects in the months to come - if your business does not match the project sponsored by SingTel just wait - the next project may be looking for your exact background!
It is too early to announce the next Project, but it will be with another major player in the Telco Arena. If you are a Premier Sandbox Participant (no fee - just need you to sign the Agreement), you will receive updates as new opportunities arise. If you don't sign up for Sandbox you can still keep track of what is new via this blog or the www.networkmashups.com site. Whatever works best for you is fine with us.
Watch this space for more in the coming months!
World Partner ConferenceWorld Partner Conference
Thanks to all of you who stopped by the Sandbox kiosk to say hello and learn more about both the Connected Services Sandbox and the SingTel Mobile Accelerator Project under the Connected Services Accelerator Program. What a great event! There were Microsoft Partners from around the world – over 130 countries as I recall.
For Sandbox and the Accelerator Program you couldn’t ask for a better gathering. I learned from our Partners how Sandbox could be utilized to bring so many cool applications to so many diverse situations! From mining to insurance to consumer to hospital to you name it! Very clever ideas. Amazing what bringing thousands of really smart people together can do for creativity!
If you were at WPC but did not get a chance to learn about Sandbox or the Accelerator Program the RFI can be found on the Sandbox webpage www.networkmashups.com. Check out both in one place. If your expertise matches the RFI, please register at: http://www.networkmashups.com/Content.aspx?TopicId=mobile&TopicTitle=Microsoft%20is%20driving%20the%20development%20of%20the%20next%20generation%20of%20mobile%20services and make sure you are counted – DEADLINE is July 25. Click on “Please Register” in green text at the bottom left section of the page.
This could be an excellent opportunity for a Supply Chain Management team to break into the Asian market! Good luck in the selection process!
