Mobile app to promote Jack Daniels Backstage events

With the collaboration of Jack Daniels and Universal McCann you can enjoy the privileges of a true Rock Star and find your way to the exclusive Jack Daniel’s “Backstage” parties.

Find out how much of a Rock Star you are, by taking the simple JD’s quiz. You can also jam with your friends using the “Haz tu música” section that allows you to compose your own tunes using the guitar, drums and piano.

Gather your friends and each of you can choose a different instrument and form your own mobile music band! In the “Backstage” section, after selecting a town closest to you, you will know the dates and places of the exclusive Jack Daniel’s “Backstage” parties.

The application was developed by Golden Gekko and is currently only available in Spanish. It can be found on http://jd.golgek.mobi as well as various appstores including Mobile9: http://p.mobile9.com/goldengekko/gallery/

The application is available for the top 250 Java devices in Spain as well as the iPhone in the next week or so.

Let’s Rock!

Golden Gekko Finalist of Red Herring 100 Europe

Red Herring last week announced that Golden Gekko was named a Finalist of Red Herring 100 Europe, an award given to the top 100 private technology companies based in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region each year.

Red Herring’s lists of top private companies are an important part of the publication’s tradition of identifying new and innovative technology companies and entrepreneurs. Companies like Google, eBay, and Skype were spotted in their early days by Red Herring editors, and touted as leaders that would change the way we live and work.

Red Herring’s editorial staff rigorously evaluated several hundred private companies through a careful analysis of financial data and subjective criteria, including quality of management, execution of strategy, and dedication to research and development.

Red Herring will honor the Red Herring 100 Europe Finalist companies at its Red Herring Europe 2009 Conference. Scheduled for March 31- April 2, at the Berlin Radisson Hotel. This intimate, 2 1/2 day event will explore how European firms are leading the charge in many technology sectors, gaining a competitive advantage, and driving entrepreneurial success in ways that create business opportunities for challengers and incumbents alike.

We are very happy and honored over this recognition!
