Come the third week of February each year, the city of Barcelona is transformed by the Mobile World Congress into an international hive of the mobile industry’s who’s who, so of course we’re looking forward to hopping over there to make our peers aware of waze, and all we have to offer.

If you’ll be attending the congress, make sure to mosey on by our space in the Smaato booth and say hello! We’ll be in Hall 7, the ‘Apps Hall’, in booth 7C38.

Other places you can check us out are at the Mobile Premiere Awards, on February 15. We’re up for the ‘Mobile Monday Innovator of the Year’ award  and Noam, our CEO, is gonna rock his 3 minute presentation. That’s not to say that the competition isn’t super stiff – ‘cause it is. We’re looking forward to sharing the stage with all kindsa cool apps, from augmented reality startups, Layar, to LBS apps, like Aloqa. You can check out all the finalists here and can purchase tickets for the event here.

Additionally, you can find us at the TechCrunch mobile 2010 meet up, an interactive and live-video-streamed session featuring some of the most innovative and interesting mobile startups and investors in Europe, on February 17. Tickets to the event can be purchased here. Noam will be presenting at 2:50pm on the topic of “Using mobile apps to crowdsource data into a service.” Should be a good one.

And last, and by no means least, we’re working to organize a meet up with our area managers and users in the Barcelona area. Stay tuned to @waze_es for information about where and when we plan to gather folks. It’s gonna be a real good time!
