With Mobile World Congress behind us BlackBerry has shown further commitments to their multi-pronged strategies. They are investing heavily on their security foundation while expanding the software push by integrating with top partners to expand the accessibility of their solutions. BlackBerry has also made a small acquisition that has big implications to be a generator of reoccurring revenue stream through security consultancy.

Jordi Boza, CEO at Remote Eye, explains how his 3rd startup focuses on remote technical assistance to enterprises, saving them money and time. By using their B2B software solution a company can use a smartphone, tablet or smart glasses to provide technical service or any type of assistance, remotely, without having to bare the cost of shipping someone physically. With the introduction of augmented reality they’re even able to physically show, the person on the ground, where he has to put his own hand or tool in order to solve the problem. Remote Eye participated at 4YFN during MWC16 and they’ve already accumulated several awards, including one from Google for developing for Google Glasses. Jordi explains the difference between augmented and virtual reality and how they’re looking into developing telepresence solutions for health applications.

Helen Keegan, organiser of Swedish Beers and Mobile Advertising Expert, Troy Norcross, Startup Adviser and Digital Strategy Expert, Ilicco Elia, Head of Mobile at DigitasLBi and Rafe Blandford, Mobile Strategist at DigitasLBi discuss with us all about mobile trends and what they expect to see anew, at this year’s Mobile World Congress. In a beautiful down-town Barcelona apartment we got together on a Sunday morning, just before MWC16 hit off, and talked about mobile advertising, adblocking, educating users, virtual reality and much more. On the microphone for Tech Talks Central is Vicki Kolovou, while the rest of the TTC team Sakis Triantafyllakis, Yannis Rizopoulos and Venetia Kyritsi made sure to capture the whole conversation on image and tweet about it.
A quite important benefit of the connected economy is electronic and -more specifically- mobile payments. Hiroyuki Sato, SEO at Docomo Digital, a subsidiary of the well-known Japanese carrier which is based in Europe, explains their new initiative that they hope will connect many different payment methods into one enabling platform which will offer global access to their customers via their mobile devices. Docomo Digital presence in MWC16 perfectly serves their purpose which is to start talking with many stakeholders in order to enable a mobile ecosystem, including regulators, financial institutions, operators. etc. Interviewed by Sakis Triantafyllakis for Tech Talks Central
Good news for travellers around the globe, which are now able to save some money on roaming for calls and data! Gregory Gundelfinger, Chief Executive Officer at KnowRoaming presented such a product at MWC16 offering uninterrupted and much cheaper service to frequent travellers. Their scheme is based on a special sticker placed upon the normal SIM card of the user, some kind of e-wallet and a lot of agreements with local operators, as KnowRoaming offers its services in more than 80 (popular) countries. Talking and texting prices differ a little from country to country, but the fixed price of $7.99/day for unlimited data seems really interesting.

Albert Forn, Associate Director at Mobile World Capital and Renee Jimenez, Manager at Mobile World Capital GSMA explain the purpose of the edu_Hack workshop coordinated by mSchools, the joint initiative by Mobile World Capital Barcelona and GSMA. Conducted during the weekend preceding MWC16, at the Arena in Plaza Espanya, they managed to bring together over 400 teachers from private and public schools to collaborate and develop ideas for integrating technology into schools. Although the audio was recorded under difficult conditions, the whole experience, watching these tutors use the business model canvas, was amazing. Interviewed by Vicki Kolovou & Yannis Rizopoulos for Tech Talks Central.
