Nokia’s Mobile Rules competition
SCOPE OF THE COMPETITION
The goal of the competition is to seek out the developers and entrepreneurs who are
creating new value, new revenue and services for mobile workforces and the mobile lifestyle.
The Mobile Rules! is a “two-track” competition:
Track 1: MOBILE APPLICATIONS
Categories are Multiplayer/Connected Games, Multimedia, Enterprise and Infotainment.
We are looking for new applications that use the unique enablers of the Nokia Platforms.
Applications will be judged on uniqueness, design, ease of use, and overall end-user experience.
Important note: don’t let categories restrict your ideas; it’s your application that counts.
Track 2: MOBILE BUSINESS PLANS
The main focus areas of the business plan competition are “Communication and sharing”,
“Internet innovation and mobility” and “Human and green applications”, but there’s no
limitation to your plan – as long as it’s about mobile business. Plans are judged on
novelty value and innovation, market potential, customer adoption, revenue opportunity
and investor value.
COMPETITION TIMELINE
