Carlsbad, CA., Nov. 7, 2013 - LocationSmart®, the leading provider of real-time location and interactivity services, has been honored with the 2013 Mobile Excellence Award for "Best Delivery Platform for Mobile."

"We are sincerely honored to be recognized as a leader for our innovative work in the mobile location industry," said Mario Proietti, CEO of LocationSmart "It is exciting to help our customers solve the real-world challenges of mobile location awareness and relevant interactions when users are present and most likely to engage."
