BuzzCity goes to grow in India

by: Bena Roberts Monday, August 4th, 2008

The mobile advertising company that also owns mobile social network mygamma.com is about to partner with someone in India.

From the source:

Lai Kok Fung Co-founder and CEO, BuzzCity.com, said, “We are in talks for a strategic parthership with an Indian entity, which is likely to get finalised by August-end. We are talking to the leading publishers and advertisers.”
He added, “We are tagetting this unique group of people who are using Internet on phone, PCs, Blackberry, and iPhone in the 20-35 age group in India, Indonesia and South Africa. There is a new opportunity for advertisers emerging in this segment. There are 250 million mobile users in India and 30 per cent are active mobile users.”

“We work with leading advertisers and content providers like HDFC Standard Life, Indiatimes, Tata AIG, Nazara, ICICI Bank and Kodak, among others. $10,000 is the average spending of our advertisers on our network per month,” Fung informed.

What we think?
I wonder who it is? This is interesting to see the level of the partnership if its is another mobile advertising company or an operator. I know BuzzCity and I will try and squeeze it out of them.
