AdMob picked up the winner of The Innovative Business Model Award in the Meffys last night in Monte Carlo, fighting off tough competition from 3 UK, Amobee, Muzicall and MX Telecom.
My acceptance speech was intentionally short, consisting of “Thank you” mainly as a protest against a previous speaker (who shall remain nameless) who insisted on reading a prepared speech plugging the product that had just won an award. He doggedly continued despite the slow hand clapping, jeers and get-him-off’s that slowly erupted.
I mean, there’s a time and place for everything and this crowd wanted to finish and get partying.
Of course, the thank you applied to all the publishers, advertisers and AdMobians, without which all this wouldn’t have been possible, my Mum and …..
Seriously though, it was great to win an award and if you had anything to do with the voting, thanks very much indeed.
And, does anyone know where all the taxis of Monte Carlo are hiding? I haven’t seen one.
