The Best Campaign – Advertising in Mobile Gaming Environment Award went to Jio Cricket Play Along (JCPA) which brought people together to celebrate the most loved sport in the country by turning spectators into participants, getting India closer to Cricket, their favourite teams and players. Users can engage with Jio Cricket Play Along on their mobile screens while matches are broadcast live on television. The concept is based on the fundamental principle of interactivity to ensure that viewers could not only watch their favourite cricket contest but could also be a part of the same by predicting the outcome of the live match in real-time. The game is available to both Jio and Non-Jio subscribers.
JioPhone, India ka Smartphone, known for accelerating India's digital transformation was recognized for the Best Mobile Strategy. JioPhone was launched with the objective of empowering every Indian with the power of digital services, especially those, who could not afford a smartphone.
