Blue Systems, a London-based provider of global financial information software, today announced that blue mobile™, its real-time market data application, has become the first ever financial services software application to receive an AT&T Fast-Pitch award.
blue mobile™ secured third place for the ‘Best New Enterprise Application’, in the contest which was held at the Wireless Enterprise Symposium 2008 in Orlando, Florida. blue mobile™ is the only standalone mobile application offering affordable real-time global market information and was commercially launched the week before the Fast-Pitch contest in May.
Sulim Malook, CEO of Blue Systems, said: “Receiving an AT&T Fast-Pitch award is a great honour for us and we are delighted that our newly launched blue mobile™ offering has already been recognised for the value it delivers to both end users and mobile operators. This endorsement by AT&T, America’s largest mobile carrier, ensures blue mobile™ will be fast tracked into the US market with their support. We look forward to a close collaboration over the coming months.”
blue mobile provides professional and retail investors with the fastest, smartest way to analyse global stock market information in their offices, at home, or on the move 24/7. The application is data hungry and runs only on the latest smartphones. Network operators are subsequently able to increase revenue from the adoption and upgrade of data tariffs and device manufacturers have a compelling and ‘sticky’ application from which to generate smartphone sales and upgrades.
With coverage of over 90 global exchanges, blue mobile™ delivers real-time, delayed and historic data across the equities, fixed income, futures and options, commodities, currencies, company news and financial information. Users can also benefit from intuitive analytics and charting options for informed decision-making.
The low price point of blue mobile™ opens up real-time financial markets to non-professional users, who can now register and download the software direct from Blue Systems’ website at www.bluesystems.info. Users can select content options to form a pre-bundled data package, including Dow Jones Newswires and company financials, or tailored content from the company’s extensive catalogue of real-time data. With online facilities for exchange permissioning and payment, the website enables users to seamlessly set up, install and benefit from professional grade market data.
