Held at our Annual TC3: Telecom Council Carrier Connections Summit in September, the SPIFFY Awards provide our Service Provider Forum members, SPIFers,
the opportunity to recognize the amazing innovations coming out of the Silicon Valley.
Hundreds of startups will be reviewed by the Council SPIF members throughout the year,
but only 7 will win a covetted SPIFFY Award.

All startups who make it through our filtering process and are invited to present at a Telecom Council meeting, have been identified as a promising telecom company.
From among these, some young companies stand out for their innovation, market opportunity or quantifiable interest among the Council's 25 global Service Providers including AT&T,
British Telecom, Docomo, France Telecom/Orange, Swisscom, Verizon, Vodafone and many other fixed and wireless carriers from Europe, Asia, India and North and South America listed here.
SPIFFY Award 2013 Nominees, announced in June, will be selected by the Telecom Council’s Service Provider Forum (SPIF) from among over 200+ startups representing the broad a range of telecom products and services who present in Telecom Council meetings from June 2012 to May 2013.
