A warm welcome to the
Mobile Innovations Awards
Winners Edition
This is the inaugural year for the Mobile Innovations Awards
as well as the Mobile Innovations Magazine. Both titles are new
kids on the block and it has been a very exciting time.
Few would fail to be engaged by the way mobile is changing
the way we live our lives. We discuss wearables, we use phrases
like the Internet of Things and M2M. There is virtual reality in
a store near you and beacons make it possible for retailers to
communicate while you shop.
We no longer hail a black cab, we Hailo via our smart phone app,
or Uber one (Future GazingI31). Cabbies may strike in anger as
their business is diluted, but this use of mobile to simplify everyday
life is an unstoppable phenomenon.
The Mobile Innovations Awards (The WinnersI7) were created
to pay tribute to those who are pushing the boundaries of what
is possible with mobile and who are succeeding in a business and
commercial setting. This is important. Billions of dollars, pounds,
euros, and most other currencies have been poured into mobile
startups and ventures. Some of it will pay off, but the skill is in
knowing which horse to back – and when.
The mobile world is one of constant change. It is inevitable
that some of the categories for the Mobile Innovations
Awards will have to change next year to keep them
relevant. And the next, and the next. That is what these
awards are about. Innovation, change and pushing the
boundaries.
Congratulations to all the winners, and commiserations to
those who narrowly missed glory. And thanks to our worthy
panel of hardworking judges (The JudgesI5).
It was a tough competition.

Ellis Brigham
Following the successful launch of the new Ellis Brigham website
in 2012, the next big step in the world of ecommerce was to create
a website optimised for mobile phone visitors. Like many other
retailers, recent months have seen a substantial increase in the
volume of people using their phone to view products online, but the
volume of sales to these visitors was not increasing in proportion
to visits and bounce rates were high. Ellis Brigham’s new mobile
optimised site is changing all that.

The next generation of game-changers
The Rising Star Award was created to pay tribute to someone who is doing great
things and of whom more is expected in the coming years.
This year, for the inaugural Mobile Innovations
Awards, we pay tribute with this award to
literally dozens of potential ground breakers and
game-changers.
The recipient of the Rising Star Award 2014
goes to Apps for Good which helps young people
with the skills they need to make technology
personal by building their own apps to solve
problems within their communities. With the
knowledge of how mobile technology works, these
young people are enabled and empowered not
only to help their own communities, but also to be
tomorrow’s technology innovators.
Apps for Good is not just about students who
can code; it’s about students who can code for a
purpose and who learn vital entrepreneurial skills
to market and launch their digital products.
Apps for Good is an open-source education
movement that aims to build the next generation
of problems-solvers and digital makers. One of the
fastest growing charities disrupting technology
education today, Apps for Good has a clear vision
to empower students through technology.
How it works
Educators within schools are trained to deliver the
Apps for Good course to their students for free;
teaching young people how to solve problems
within their communities through building
web, social and mobile applications. An online
community of over 750 industry professionals
support educators and mentor students on all
aspects of the product development course,
helping to bridge the gap between education and
employment. Apps for Good has a bold aim to
be present within 40% of all secondary schools in
the UK by 2016 as well as embark on international
expansion. Through scaling, they will be able to
achieve their mission of transforming technology
education forever.
Apps for Good are also committed to developing
long-term and mutually beneficial partnerships
with companies and foundations who share
their vision of improving technology education.
Corporate partners and sponsors include
technology leaders Google, Facebook, Nominet
Trust, Thomson Reuters, Barclaycard and Samsung.
28 I The Rising Star Award 2014

Why was Apps for Good created?
Traditional education systems are wasting
talent. Many young people are de-motivated by
traditional teaching methods that leave them
ill-prepared for the real world. Technology is
advancing apace, exciting the imagination of
young people, who want to use it to make, play
and share. Yet traditional schooling lags well
behind, missing this opportunity to engage,
especially those students most disaffected with
standard lessons. Teachers who want to use
technology to create more exciting ways to learn
feel frustrated they cannot do more.
“We want to build a new global generation of
problem solvers and makers: students who can
create, launch and market new products that
change the world. We believe that technology can
be a great equaliser and a massive force for good
to transform lives and communities around the
world,” said Debbie Forster, MD of Apps for Good.
The target audience
Apps for Good targets young people aged
between 10 and 18. It is an open-source technology
education movement that partners with educators
in schools and learning centres. Expert volunteers,
(people like you) are encouraged to help with the
programme by going into schools to explain how
mobile technology can be used.
In the course, students work together as teams
to find real issues they care about and learn
to build a mobile, web or social app to solve
them. Like professional entrepreneurs, students
go through all key aspects of new product
development, from idea generation, technical
feasibility and programming to product design,
deciding on business models and marketing.
“Our course teaches coding and the
fundamentals of the digital world, while also
developing skills in problem solving, creativity,
communication and teamwork,” said Debbie Forster.
With a focus on solving real issues that matter to
young people, our students learn the full software
product development process in a hands-on way.”
Expert Volunteers
Throughout the course, experts mentor
the student teams in one-hour sessions via
videoconference or in person. They help the
students to progress or pivot their ideas and
provide inspiration and motivation. Experts
also give teachers a hand in tackling the more
challenging areas of the course and making
computing education more relevant to industry.
The prizes
At the end of the academic year, Apps for Good
hosts their own awards which consist of a nation-
wide competition in which the top student app
teams compete to have their apps launched
commercially with the support of Apps for Good
and their sponsors.

FUTURE
GAZING
Coming soon to a mobile near you!
Only the foolhardy are embarking on much prediction of the future these days and it is not
surprising. Hardly a month goes by without something completely changing our expectations
of what the future will look like from a mobile device.
There are plenty of examples. Who would have thought that a mobile app would have caused
a multi-city taxi strike? Who would have expected internet criticism to lead to the demise of a
highly worthy mobile phone designer because of his use of plastic? On the other side of the
equation, did you think mobile payments would take this long?
On the next few pages we discuss a few of the latest and most significant mobile innovation
developments,that may help you chart tomorrow’s choppy waters. Until the next big thing changes
everything of course. But we have come to expect that now. It is just a little difficult to plan for.
Samsung mobile design
leader Chang Dong-hoon
has been “let go” after praise for
the record breaking Galaxy S4
turned to criticism of the design
when someone pointed out the
cover was... plastic.
Growing criticism on internet
blogs was too much for
Samsung’s executives to bear,
and a head had to roll, despite
comments after the Mobile
World Congress in Barcelona,
which included “the response
to the Galaxy S5 and our new
wearables line since Mobile
World Congress has been
phenomenal.
“Samsung Galaxy S5 is a
miraculous technical power
house. It has been described as
having ‘more processing power
than the world’s most powerful
Cray super-computer of 1982
which weighed more than five
tons. Its camera surpasses
the first digital SLRs from
Canon and Nikon. It can record
near-broadcast quality high-
definition video of a standard
unmatched by a £2,500-plus
HD camcorder of five years
ago.” Yet design head Mr Chang
Dong-hoon has lost his job
because of the plastic case.
Now the internet blogging
geek fraternity is rallying behind
Mr Chang Dong-hoon, arguing
that Samsung was unfair,
and that plastic can be good.
Apple’s 4S glass case is ‘cool’
but it has been pointed out that
it also “breaks”.
So what will prevail?
Praise for the technology,
or the fashion derision that
questions whether anyone could
possibly walk around with a
plastic phone. Could Mr Chang
Dong-hoon and the Samsung
executives perhaps launch a
designer version in a glass case
or is there some reason why this
can’t happen?
Plastic
isNOT
COOL

It has caused #Ubergeddon,
it doesn’t exist, but is valued
at US$17 billion, which makes
it the world’s most valuable
transportation company. Oh yes,
and it doesn’t own any vehicles.
Yet Uber is bringing capital
cities London, Madrid and Paris
to a gridlocked standstill because
traditional cabbies says this
ephemeral system is “unfair” and
breaks the rules on meters in cabs
other than black cabs.
The innovation they are
objecting to is the use of a
smartphone app to “hail” the cab.
Existing companies operating in
London already offer this facility,
including Computer Cab, Dial ‘a’
Cab and of course Hailo but these
work with the black cab drivers
rather than in competition to
them.
Above all, Uber doesn’t really
exist. It has no fleet. It employs
no drivers. There is no dispatch
hub. There is no dispatcher at
all. It is a system based entirely
on mutual and convenient
availability and trust. Uber’s
software automatically provides
a connection between people
who want a ride and people in
the business of providing one.
Uber itself has no real relationship
or, even, actual interaction with
either party.
What’s more, it’s not fancy.
It’s neat – you know where
your car is, you watch
your car come, no money
changes hands.
Almost anybody could do it.
The technological barrier to entry
is small which is probably the
black cab driver’s fear.
Hailo, one of its competitors,
uses basically the same software
but unlike Uber, is partnering with
taxi companies and complying
with local regulations. And yet
the Uber valuation and its media
reception suggest that it is, like
Google and Amazon, on its way to
creating a one-company market.
Even the EU’s Neelie Kroes
has pitched in on the debate.
According to her, “the debate
about taxi apps is really a
debate about the wider sharing
economy.”She is right, but this
32 I Future Gazing
is not about sharing, it is about
doing something traditional in
a different way, and completely
changing the game forever. This
is what mobile innovation does.
Try it, and you are likely to
become a convert. The results
are little short of miraculous.
You push a button on a mobile
app, and minutes later, without
any negotiation or logistical
discussion, an exceedingly polite
driver is at your service.
Uber could change more than
just the fortunes of black cab
drivers. It is predicted that it will
convince more people who live in
cities that it would be easy and
economical to do without their
own cars. (The urban young are
already demonstrating a marked
resistance to car ownership.)
That potential makes Uber the
biggest business story of the day,
and a massive economic disrupter,
too.
And Uber has ambitions well
beyond this. It proposes to be
the Internet of the actual world.
Uber’s biggest investor is Google.
Can they both have that job?
#Ubergeddon
Cabbies
say virtual
is unfair.

Beacons. Why are they
important for loyalty?
Q > What’s a beacon?
A > BLE stands for Bluetooth Low Energy.
Q > Do I need to know that?
A > Yes. Beacons (or iBeacons if you want the Apple
version rather than the Android one) will enable
merchants to communicate with customers even
when there is a poor mobile signal inside a store.
Q > Is this a widespread problem?
A > Actually yes. The biggest offenders are the
massive steel framed buildings favoured by the
large retailers. They completely kill mobile signals.
Q > What will the merchants communicate?
A > Hopefully really useful stuff, otherwise consumers
are going to switch off. No-one wants to be
bombarded by marketing messages every time
they enter a store.
Q > So that’s where loyalty comes in?
A > Exactly. If there is a benefit to consumers, such as
extra reward points, special offers only if you are
switched on, really useful product information,
or other stuff, such as ‘go now to the restaurant
as the queue is low’, or even, ‘we have your lost
child’ then there is a definite benefit.
Q > Any problems?
A > Potentially, if the interoperability issues are
not sorted out, merchants will have to have
multiple beacons. Also, there are a few issues
over the positioning of beacons to guarantee the
customer really is where the merchant thinks they
are, or there could be some confusing messages
being received.
Basically the system needs some work to make
sure it is fully operational. However, with a big
rush for implementation there are bound to be
some teething problems.
10% and
growing
Mobile channels are now a significant
source of revenue for retailers.
According to a study by the Centre
for Economics and Business Research
(CEBR) and NetSuite, mobile now
accounts for 10% of UK High Street
spend, with mobile-optimised commerce
sites and smartphone apps expected to
generate sales totalling £56bn in 2012.
According to an IMRG CapGemini report,
payments via smartphones and tablets
leapt 356%
in June 2012
compared
to the same
month last
year, against
online payment
growth of
12.5%. Average
order values for
mobile and online are now comparable.
These figures prove what most
smartphone users already know: it’s
convenient and easy to research product
information and buy on mobile devices.
In one IAB study, 42% of shoppers
interviewed said they use mobile because
it’s the easiest way to research and buy,
and 49% of those who did not currently
engage in mCommerce said they planned
to do so.
Many believe the banks and credit card
providers have had it their way for too
long, and it’s no surprise to see multiple
mobile payment models and consortium
partners jostling for position in the race to
develop convenient, secure, and trusted
mobile payment solutions.
Rivals
providing on-
device b2b and
b2c payments
include Square
and PayPal
Here, iZettle,
Payleven and
more than 200 other contenders keenly
fighting –with venture capital help – for a
place in the market.

Working
out the rules
In 2011, Gartner
predicted that
by 2015 more
than 50 percent
of organizations
that generate
new ideas and
methods for
products and
services will
gamify their
innovation
processes, and that
by 2014 the gamification
of consumer goods marketing
and customer retention will
become as important as social
media and e-commerce.
They probably got the dates
wrong, but gamification is definitely
a trend, even if there is a confusion
over what it actually means.
As for the intersection of
gamification and mobile, it’s all
about making the smartphone
smarter through gamifying its
user interface (UI).
“The most disruptive
development that I have seen
most recently in the gamification
space is Sony’s EvolutionUI,”
comments Mario Herger, founder
of Enterprise Gamification
Consultancy. “It’s a gamified
onboarding experience on their
Android phones. Instead of
reading a manual you start off
as a beginner with only a few
functionalities turned on. The
more you use the phone, the
more features are unlocked,
and you level up from rookie to
intermediate to master.” Sort of
play and learn then.
Herger explains that the system
works like a game (think Candy
Crush or Angry Birds), where the
system slowly brings the user
more complex game play.
“That basically will replace
many areas of training and you
are productive right from the
beginning,” says Herger.

Wearables are such fun, and
offer amazing potential, but
several years after the first payment
by Swatch experiment, no-one has
quite nailed wearables, but it is
very very close.
There is a great deal in the
category, which includes everything from smart glasses that
record video to watches that answer phone calls.
There is good reason why wearables are generating such
a buzz in the tech industry. Wearables are a long way from
overtaking smartphones, but the market is expected to grow at a
fast pace over the next few years.
Among the companies supplying the critical components
are ARM Holdings, Broadcom, Freescale, Intel, Mediatek,
and Qualcomm. These technology
companies, that provide all the
component parts that make mobile
phones work securely, will supply the
brains and wireless chips for these
devices
As with most things mobile,
there is no clear winner running away with the market, and there
is unlikely to be one.
In front though are some
unexpected names. Nike, Fitbit, and
other fitness bands dominate about
90 percent of wearables sales,
according to Accenture. But Sony,
Pebble, and others have also built devices with more features,
including notifications and the ability to snap photos and
access apps. Samsung has tried to position itself as a leader in
wearables with its smartwatch and a strong marketing campaign,
but it’s unclear just how well Gear is selling. Google, meanwhile,
is going after smart eyewear with Glass.
What does this mean? Anyone could emerge a winner, even
if it’s not a big name. There is also still plenty of opportunity for
something amazing to turn up that alters everything yet again.
There are plenty of really cool ideas, but we are still waiting for
that gamechanger that attracts the masses.
Currently health and fitness devices make up
the vast majority of wearables sales and that
is likely to continue. Other devices have to find
a way to appeal to a specific consumer need
before they really take off. Right now, many are
too complicated to be useful.
Nothing to wear?
Mobile is the new black.
