FW: MTNapps Developer Challenge: Call For Entries

[Zubair Abubakar]

Happy holidays everyone,

Here is a competition I think would be a good opportunity for you to apply for (if you haven't already). MTN Nigeria, in partnership with Co-creation Hub, have introduced an App Developer Challenge to support development of cool apps that meet local needs. The competition is designed to empower Nigerian developers and tech entrepreneurs to build appealing and locally relevant apps to reach MTN's millions of customers and beyond.

If you have an original app that is relevant to Nigeria, has great user experience and is commercially viable, then the MTNapps Challenge is just right for you. The categories for the competition are:

• entertainment & lifestyle
  
• productivity
  
• games 
  
• education
  
• health & wellness

There is also a special category for students.

Applications are open to individuals or teams. Only free apps (at least for the duration of the competition) are eligible for the challenge. The competition ends next week Thursday, 24th October 2013 at 11:59pm GMT +1.

Prizes to be won include:

• Hyundai iX35
• N1 million
• Samsung Galaxy S4
• 6 months free app promotion on the MTN Nextapps store

To learn more and get started, go here (www.mtnonline.com/challenge). A one-page PDF developers' guide is also attached for more information. If you have any issues, questions or enquiries, simply email sup...@cchubnigeria.com and someone will attend to you.

For further info, you may contact Tolu cc'ed in this email. 

All the best!
