MyStrands Social Player has just been selected as WINNER of the Orange Innovation Contest, during the Orange Partner Camp that took place in Cape Canaveral this week.

This is excellent news as the Orange Innovation Contest is designed to showcase radical technological breakthrough and innovation. It is a competition for the ‘best of the best’ and approximately 60 companies competed for the award.

As you know, MyStrands Social Player is a music player for mobile devices with two main characteristics: it is a music discovery tool and a strong community builder. You can read more information and watch a video here.

Congratulations to Ferran Soler (left) and Joseto Rubio (right) and to the rest of the team who did not get a chance to go to Cape Canaveral!

MyStrands is the Winner of the Under the Radar Best In Show Award in the music category! Thanks to the panelists and to everyone at the event for making this happen!
