Startup Open 2015 for Entrepreneurs (http://startupopen2015.istart.org/)

Startup Open is a global competition to identify and
recognize startups founded between GEW 2014 and GEW 2015. It is open to
any entrepreneurs who has just or is about to start a new venture and
has a “startup moment” between November 23, 2014 and November 16, 2015.

A startup moment can be when a business is incorporated, doors open for
business, a first sale is completed, outside funding is secured, or
something else that can be interpreted as the company is “open for
business.”

Startup Open recognizes the GEW 50 – the 50 most promising ventures from
around the world– based on their growth potential, passion, creativity,
level of idea development, and pitching skills. Those 50 companies will
then compete for a handful of prizes with the winners announced during
GEW, November 16-22, 2015.
