The winners were selected by an independent panel of industry experts and announced at App Promotion Summit in Berlin. The awards aim at facilitating and celebrating progress within the global app marketing and growth ecosystem.

"It's our mission to help the app industry grow," said James Cooper, Chairman, App Promotion Summit.

Investing in transparent and high-quality platforms such as Facebook and Google has been a big part of that."

Recognition for Bamboo's business model signals the industry's continuing demand for transparent, high-performing growth channels. This year the Facebook and Google 'duopoly' controlled 57% of mobile advertising, a reflection of the shift away from low-transparency and high-fraud mobile ad networks.
