Online targeting firm Nugg.Ad is launching a competition aimed at start-ups where data driven businesses have the chance to win a service contract worth up to 100,000 euros.
The competition is running as part of Nugg.Ad’s ‘Data Days’ event in October, which will focus on the future of the data industry and the opportunities and challenges facing the sector.
Data Days plan to promote new talent on a large scale: start-ups are invited to send their applications for the “Data Pioneers” competition by 31st August.
The firm is looking for creative ideas for user-focused services which build on the data ecosystem created by the targeting industry’s market leader, nugg.ad. With the support of Deutsche Post DHL, such innovations could be rewarded with a service contract of up to €100,000.
Start-ups will also have the opportunity to purchase tickets for both days of the Data Days event at a discounted rate. A select few will also have the opportunity to win tickets on facebook.com/datadays and twitter.com/datadays.
Data Days 2012 is supported by media partner brand eins magazine, W&V, Adzine, gruenderszene.de, deutschestartups.de.
