Sfonge bada developer challenge information

Samsung and Sfonge have teamed up to launch a hugh bada developers event over the next few months. This competition is for developers living in the Middle East and North Africa. The grand prize winner will have an opportunity to attend Mobile World Congress in 2012 which will allow them to promote their application and will also have the app distributed all around the region via marketing and revenue sharing. This is a huge opportunity for an independent developer to make it big and to also bring attention to the bada platform all across a region where bada is fairly new.

The theme of the developer competition is “will your application make the biggest splash” and it must be either business or consumer oriented and it must also be mobile software. Registration ends next month August 31 (Wed), 2011.
