The competition is open to all developers who are developing or have developed a BlackBerry® WebWorks™/HTML5, Adobe® AIR® or Native Gaming app for the BlackBerry platform. An international jury of industry experts will select the apps that will participate in the AppCircus at BlackBerry 10 Jam (May 1–3) in Orlando, Florida.
Of course, it’s not just about being judged the best BlackBerry app. Entering the competition also gives you the chance to win one of three US$25,000 prize packages to see your favorite bands rock! (Winners will have up to a year to use the prize, so you can be sure to take in the coolest concerts that make summer the best season for outdoor fun bar none!)
One prize package is awarded for each category.
The prize package includes:
- $10,000 cash award to purchase concert tickets and to be used as spending money for you and your friends
- $15,000 travel voucher (booked through RIM’s agent) to purchase airline tickets, hotel reservations and ground transportation for you and your friends to attend the concerts in which you’ve purchased concert tickets
Deadline for submission is April 29, 2012, at 11:59 EST.
