“We are always excited to see the tremendous innovation coming through our Vodafone Mobile Clicks competition each year. It’s the perfect launch pad for start-ups, but it’s always challenging to pick winners because we receive so many superb entries. Through both rounds, our country winners demonstrated not only creativity and innovation, but also the value-add to customers, which really made them stand out from the competition. We’re delighted to have them all on board and we look forward to seeing what they bring to the table in this final stage” said Lee Epting, Director of Content Services at Vodafone Group.
