<\/strong>The GSM Association (GSMA) and the Mobile Marketing Association (MMA) have agreed to cooperate to accelerate the development of mobile advertising worldwide. The two organisations will collaborate to deliver standardisation and transparency around current mobile advertising activity, and to develop new, innovative advertising techniques.<\/p>\n

The MMA will lead the development of guidelines, formats and best practices for mobile advertising, while the GSMA will work with mobile operators globally to develop and prioritise consistent structures, such as inventory types, commercial and measurement models that will allow advertisers to create valuable advertising propositions.<\/p>\n

“This partnership will build on the Mobile Marketing Association’s work to date in the development of mobile advertising,” said Bill Gajda, Chief Commercial Officer, of the GSMA . “The MMA and GSMA will bring leading advertisers, agencies and operators together to ensure that this very promising, but nascent, advertising medium realises its full potential for the benefit of all players in the eco-system.”<\/p>\n

The agreement follows the recent announcement of the GSMA’s Mobile Media and Entertainment Group that will oversee its Mobile Advertising Programme, which is made up of representatives from leading mobile operators from around the globe.<\/p>\n

“The value chain for mobile advertising is more complex than other media channels, with the mobile operator playing a key role, hence the driver for collaboration. The GSMA brings the global GSM mobile operator community to the table and we look forward to working with them to expand the reach of a sustainable mobile advertising ecosystem,” said Laura Marriott, president of the MMA. “We look forward to working jointly with the GSMA to deliver a consistent global industry standard for mobile advertising.”<\/p>\n
