Nokia Has a Contest for Application Developers: Calling All Innovators

Nokia has decided to offer some interesting prizes for a new contest dedicated to developers. $150,000 is offered for three categories of applications. Each category will have three winners. First place will get $25,000, second place will get $10,000 and third place $5,000. Additionally each winner will be offered free trips to the Mobile World Congress in 2009.

The contest will take place between September 16th and December 15th. Plenty of time for you to create a winning application. Results will be announced in January for all categories.

And the categories are Eco-Challenge, Emerging Markets and Technology Showcase. In the first one you will have to come up with environment friendly applications. The second one is dedicated to emerging markets which means you have to concentrate your efforts on improving life with your applications. The third category refers to applications created to run on any kind of technology compatible with Symbian S40 or S60.

Exciting? I’d say so. If your app becomes a huge hit, you might even see it used by other Nokia customers and why not, even reviewed here on MobileTopSoft. Good luck to all developers!
