New application deadline! Want a chance to win 10,000 EUR for your startup?

With a still growing pool of awards awaiting the most innovative ideas, STARTER has decided to postpone the application deadline for their Startup Contest. The new deadline is May 4. 

The infoShare Startup Contest in Poland gives you a chance to win 10,000 euro in cash plus an opportunity to tap into the pool of further 850,000 euro accumulated by investors. At the event you will also have the chance to show yourself to international Venture Capitalists and meet the Polish startup community. What’s not to like?

The Startup Zone Festival

The contest is part of The Startup Zone Festival in Poland, which is the biggest tech, new media and startup gathering in Central and Eastern Europe. The festival takes place at the 11th and 12th of June in Gdansk, Poland.

Startup contest with a bunch of opportunities 

The contest is aimed at early stage startups who are in the phase of implementing their ideas. Besides the chance of meeting mentors and investors and present your startup before a jury you can win 10,000 euro in cash as well as part of the 600,000 euro.

“There is certainly something for compete for! Thanks to our partners the best startups will contend for a share in the total pool of 850,000 euro accumulated by the investors expected at the infoShare. The winners will be awarded 10,000 euro in cash funded by the City of Gdansk. We are heading for a truly unforgettable rivalry contest, and since the pool of awards has grown only recently, we have decided to give more time for applications so that those for whom 10 000 euro was not sufficiently motivating can have another opportunity” says Agnieszka Meller of the Gdańsk Business Incubator STARTER, organiser of the infoShare Startup Zone.

In order to participate go to this site and fill out the application form. You can also read more about what the application includes here.

After submission your application will be assessed by a jury who will select up to 30 startups. The chosen startups, announced at the 11th of May, will proceed to the semifinals which will take place at the 10th of June.

At the semifinals each startup pitches before a jury who will select 5 startups for the finals. Between the semifinals and the finals there is another chance to pitch and this time the audience will choose 2 startups to enter the finals. The finals will take place at the 12th of June.

The startup zone will be led by the Danish entrepreneur and investor Lasse Chor known as the Happiest Man Alive

If you believe your country should be represented at the infoShare Startup Contest then submit your application now – the deadline is May 4.
