Execution

An immersion into the Android world:9 Human sized 3D Android characters were themed to represent market sector applications (e.g gaming entertainment, multi media), around which the 54 developers demonstrated their apps.A partner outreach programme (Android Walk) distributed 86 different collectable and promotional Android pin badges for display on the 40 partner booths around the MWC exhibition.A "Sushi" conveyor belt displayed the breadth and choice of handsets, 115, using the platform.A Smoothie Bar delivered 22,000 smoothies themed to Android software releases.A slide on the stand provided momentum and a personal photograph for visitors.
