&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Each year &lt;a href="http://www.phocuswright.com/" target="_blank"&gt;PhoCusWright&lt;/a&gt; run the prestigious Travel Innovation Summit in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This year, &lt;a href="http://www.truphone.com/business" target="_blank"&gt;Tru&lt;/a&gt; was fortunate to be selected as one of the presenters at the conference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://conference.phocuswright.com/program_sessions/1178" target="_blank"&gt;Head here&lt;/a&gt; to see the full presentation&amp;nbsp;that Gary Cohen (Senior VP and General Manager - Americas) and Marc LeMaitre (VP of Technical Sales) delivered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was very well-received, and led to some great conversations on &lt;a href="http://www.twitter.com/truphone" target="_blank"&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt;, and some great &lt;a href="http://www.zdnet.com/blog/cell-phones/tru-sim-peace-of-mind-and-significant-cost-savings-for-international-travel/6909" target="_blank"&gt;press&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://travelkit.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/11/15/8819038-slash-roaming-charges-while-traveling-abroad-with-tru" target="_blank"&gt; coverage&lt;/a&gt; too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Part of the presentation was a video the experiences of Savvy Sue (a Tru user) and Premium Paul (not a Tru user) on a recent business trip.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;center&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width="400" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/32260793?title=0&amp;amp;byline=0&amp;amp;portrait=0" height="300" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/center&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We ended up being voted runner-up in one of the 7 event categories, and finalist in two others. Well done to all the other companies presenting - we had a great time and look forward to meeting everyone again at next year's event.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a style="float: right;" href="http://truphone.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83452e8ab69e20153930b9e4b970b-pi"&gt;&lt;img class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d83452e8ab69e20153930b9e4b970b" style="margin: 0px 0px 5px 5px;" title="FSA mobile recording in the City of London" src="http://truphone.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83452e8ab69e20153930b9e4b970b-320wi" alt="City of london from tower 42 edited" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tru’s FSA Mobile Recording went live today&lt;/strong&gt;, trading opened in Asia early morning UK time – so we’re a few hours in - and we’re pleased to report that all is calm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These customers are the most demanding you could wish to find – they are the top people at major global financial and utilities institutions, the high wire traders we read about in the papers. They expect top class service 100% of the time, are used to getting the very best that money can buy, and need technology they can depend on.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For Tru, it’s been a hugely exciting challenge. We have created a unique product, which operates rapidly, seamlessly, internationally - and satisfies this most demanding group of customers on the planet – against a fixed and very short deadline.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Working with these organisations has meant an exceptional level of partnership, with up to five calls a day with some clients as we conducted deep and thorough testing over evenings and weekends.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But the hard work has been worth it – this morning we sent the service live with clients in institutions ranging from the Fortune 50 to the small Mayfair hedge fund.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;No reported bugs. &lt;a href="http://www.truphone.com/en-GB/Recording/Demo/" target="_blank"&gt;Check out our rapid demo, here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

<p>That's why we worked hard to make sure the Tru <a href="http://www.truphone.com/en-GB/Recording" target="_blank">mobile recording</a> solution has no noticeable call delays, and is significantly quicker than using a recording application.</p>
