GarciaPL Notes - Java and Others

So! A new competition has arrived! It is called Orange API Hackathon! It is dedicated to developers and people with bright ideas about new applications, systems and services which must use one of the available Open Middleware Application Programming Interfaces which are provided by Orange and Town Hall of Warsaw (Find out where this town is! and Check Town Hall Website).

This contest is divided into two stages :

Stage 1) Collection of Abstracts (11 April 2013 - 3 June 2013)
Stage 2) Implementation and Selection (15 June May 2013 - 25 June 2013)

Awards :

- Grand Prize : invitation for one to Java One Conference 2013
- First Prize : summer internships in Orange Labs for 3 participants for 3 months


I think that very interesting and for some very useful information is that one of the partner of contest which is a IQ Partners SA is going to setting aside a pool of 500 000 PLN (about 120 000 Euros) to create a company with one or more winners of Orange API Hackathon.
