GMIC Beijing – into the Dragon’s Den

Beijing’s annual Global Mobile Internet Conference was better attended than most GSM Mobile World Congress conference halls.

For two days, the great and good of the Chinese Mobile Internet regaled us with valuable advice, canny predictions and wonderful insight. As a cross-cultural affair for networking and business learning I cannot recommend this event highly enough, definitely one for your 2011 diary and beyond.

Morodo was on the shortlist of the Innovation competition for start-ups. I really enjoyed presenting MO-Call to the massed attendees and a stiff panel of experts. Thank you to the Dragons, Joe Jasin, Victor Tong, William Wang and Wang Ye, for the excellent advice and feedback.

Thank you also to Benjamin Joffe and Barrett Parkman, founders of the Great Wall Club, organisers of the event. Now I’m looking forward to catching up with all the new people we met.

LONDON – Morodo Limited today announced the release of a new version of its iPhone app that supports cheap calls and SMS via both WiFi and 3G networks. The new iPhone app is free and available now for installation or upgrade from iTunes.

Morodo Managing Director, Andrew Reid, said. “This is the first of many MO-Call apps that will allow customers to make MO-Calls over the 3G network. What’s more, the app offers both cheap calls and low rate SMS. If your Mobile Network Operator’s iPhone bill is too expensive – well – now there’s an app for that!”

“It seemed like all of customers were asking us for a MO-Call app that used 3G as well as WiFi, it’s great that the iPhone app has been released first. It works on any iPhone or iPod touch running software version 3.0 or above and it even works on the iPad. We’ll be launching MO-Call 3G apps for other devices soon..” Added Chief Technical Officer, James Barnes.

MO-Call enables low-cost and free calling and SMS direct from a mobile phone or computer. Offering seamless connection of low-cost and free calls, MO-Call provides savings of up to 90% over Traditional mobile and Fixed Line networks.
