Why It's Fierce: M7 Networks provides a
bridge between carriers and content providers,
allowing carriers to launch mobile content services.
The company offers solutions for both BREW and Sun
Microsystems' J2ME platforms and works with both
Qualcomm and Sun extensively. M7 also works with a
number of carriers, including Verizon Wireless and
Sprint. The company powers Sprint's mobile game
service, Game Lobby, which claims more than 500,000
users. This company also works with two former
Fierce 15 winners, mobile game publishers Sorrent
and Jamdat, as well as one of this year's winners,
In-Fusio. In short, M7 has the carriers, the
technology partners, and the funding to be a success
in the mobile content market.
What To Look For: Look for M7 Networks to
continue its growth, expanding beyond to the US to
at least one market abroad.
