The price money is going te be split between two winners (100K first, 50K second). Entries from 3 countries will be taking part in the competition, besides NL and UK from last year, this year Portugal has also joined in. From each country the 5 top entries will be selected by a mixed local/global jury (Marc will be representing MoMoAms in the Dutch jury). The shortlist of 5 entries per country will be narrowed down to 1 entry per country that will participate in the final on September 24th during the PICNIC Festival. The jury will consist of some great names in the mobile industry, including some previous MoMoAms speakers such as Om Malik (GigaOm), Russell Buckley (AdMob) and Rudy DeWaele (Mobile 2.0 / MoMo Barcelona/Madrid)

For a startup Vodafone Mobile Clicks is a great opportunity. It’s free (no costs to enter the competition), it takes little time to enter the competition (approx. 1 hour), you get valuable feedback by a world-class jury and free PR. Oh, and did we mention the prize money already? :-) If you want to submit an entry for the competition head over to http://www.vodafonemobileclicks.com (entries can be submitted until August 22nd).
