Amazon Web Services just announced an extended deadline for their third annual start-up challenge that has been extended from the USA to UK, Israel and Germany this year! The five finalists (who will all be flown to San Jose, California this November) get chosen based on the following criteria: originality and creativity of the idea, likelihood of long-term success and scalability, how well it addresses a need in the marketplace, implementation of payments functionality, quality of presentation, and implementation of AWS infrastructure services and/or other paid services.
We think this is a great chance for European start-ups to prove that innovative business models do not compulsory come from the States. If you have a start-up idea or an existing company that is / will be running on AWS just apply here: http://aws.amazon.com/startupchallenge/. The deadline for applying online is September 25th. The Finalists will be notified on October 30th. Good luck =) !
