Apple CEO Steve Jobs was named “mobile industry personality of the year” during ceremonies at the World Mobile Congress in Barcelona Tuesday. As noted in nearly every report of the award, neither Jobs nor any Apple representatives were in attendance at the annual event to collect the award. According to MacWorld UK, the award was given to commemorate the 15th year of the World Mobile Awards and “reflects the contributions of individuals, established names, new thinkers, and rising starts, across the global industry and leaders of other industries that have contributed to the growth and convergence of mobile during the last year.”
