The Finnish Mobile Giant is inviting innovators from all over the world to take part in the Innovators Contest 2008. Visit the Official Website here, to enter and apply for the contest.
The contest is looking for innovators to develop mobile applications which solve or tackle problems in three major areas. They are:-
Eco-Challenge: This is a challenge for innovators to develop mobile applications which have direct or indirect connection with keeping the environment safe and working towards a greener earth. So be it from from reminding of battery charging, or energy conservation applications or recycling tips, this section of applications will be something to look forward to.
Emerging Markets: This set of applications are supposed to be aimed at the next billion mobile users. The mobile phone is never the same old black and white screened thing which used to make just calls on the go. It is a PMP, a Camera, a Personal Organizer, a Calculator and so much more. And with emerging competition (read Apple and other smartphones) what would/should the Mobile Giant’s next generation of Billion phones possess to carry on the legacy of being the world leader. This section will definitely see the peak of innovation explored and exploited.
Technology Showcase: The name says it all. The criteria here would be-How Cool you could get! That’s it.
Check out the official rules and regulations here on the Nokia Page. And Happy innovating.
