Winners of the Mobile Industry Awards 2024 Announced
The annual Mobile Industry Awards event for 2024 was held last night at the Royal Lancaster in London, which among other categories saw Sky Mobile being named the ‘Best MVNO‘ (virtual) operator, while EE won the ‘Retailer of the Year‘ and VOXI’s GenAI Chatbot was named ‘Innovation of the Year‘.
As usual, this is one of those industry events where the shortlists for each of the categories are all judged by a panel of 20 people who either work directly within or alongside the same industry, with no real consumer representation. Take the results with a pinch of salt.
One slightly interesting aside to all this is that Vodafone’s related press release (here) notes how their ‘Great British Broadband Switch’ campaign was also shortlisted for ‘Campaign of the Year’. In the end, Lebara Mobile won that category, which is probably just as well considering that the advertising watchdog recently had a few bones to pick with Vodafone’s campaign (here).
