  1. Hi Alex,

    Mobile Alliance aim is to build the ecosystem for the mobile VAS and application companies here in Singapore. This includes both startups, as well as established companies, since industry is the main qualifying criteria. Gelmato and Acision for example of big companies within our alliance, while there are also startups like Human Network Labs and Stream Media.

  2. Hi Alex,

    I believe the Mobile Alliance is open to companies of all sizes, as long as they operate in the mobile or telecommunications industries.
