MobileMonday Global Peer Award Round Finland
Posted on: January 21, 2008 – Filed under: Helsinki
The first Helsinki MobileMonday of the year 2008 opens a route to the Barcelona and Kuala Lumpur Global Peer Awards.
The Helsinki Momo will take place on January 21 at Stockholm Diskotek where the Finnish participant will be chosen for the European round of the Global Peer Award. European winners will advance to the MobileMonday Global Summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Participation in the Finnish Peer Awards is easy. Just send a description, max 2000 characters, of a mobile application or service to Mobile Monday Helsinki. Tell us where the product or service is in use and where we can test it (please include an id and password). Include your and the company contact information. You may enter your own application, of course, but you are also allowed to enter somebody else’s service or product.
It does not cost anything to enter the MobileMonday Finland Peer Awards. The deadline for the entries is January 14.
MobileMonday is especially looking for new companies. The start-up finalist presentations in Barcelona will be divided into two categories: 1) early-stage start-ups (founded in 2007, early- stage financing), and; 2) emerging start-ups (founded in or after 2005, between Series A & B funding).
Please send the entries to jari.tammisto@mobilemonday.net and editor@mobilemonday.net with “MobileMonday Peer Awards” and the name of your company in the subject field.
A jury of peers, mobile developers and people active in the mobile industry, will choose which entries are invited to present at the Finnish finals at the January 21 MobileMonday event. The finalists will have a chance to convince the members of the jury in a three-minute public presentation. The jury will give immediate feedback on the entry and the presentation.
The winner will have a chance to enter the European Peer Award on Monday, February 11th, starting at 2:00 PM at Espacio Movistar, (only 6 stops away with direct green line from Plaza Espanya), Barcelona. The best applications and/or services will have an opportunity to advance to the Kuala Lumpur finals on May 18 – 22, 2008.
