Facebook joins mobile carrier trade group GSMA
Facebook officially joined mobile carriers association GSMA, marking the first social network to join a wireless trade group, FierceWireless reported.
Joining GSMA may in part be related to Internet.org, the initiative formed by Facebook, Ericsson, MediaTek, Nokia, Opera, Qualcomm, and Samsung to “connect the next 5 billion people” who are currently without Internet access.
Facebook Vice President of Partnerships Dan Rose said in a statement to FierceWireless:
Joining GSMA reflects our focus on mobile and our continued desire to work closely and collaboratively with partners in the industry, and we look forward to playing an active role as a member.
