We just concluded our August BizSpark Startup night in partnership with Azione Capital last August 25. This time around we focused on Windows Phone 7 and the awesome applications that can be made with platform. We asked some of our partners that are developing on Windows Phone to present some of their applications
There were three presenters who showed their applications.
1. Melvin Suan and Michael Ng from Nanyang Polytechnic showed close to fifteen apps developed with the help of the students at NYP.
2. Muhammad Mulyadi, a hobbyist developer, showed his Bus Guide application for the Windows Phone. Something he created for Windows Mobile 6.5 and will now be also available once Windows Phone 7 comes out.
3. Janelle Lee from Protege Production, showed us her Armor Valley game for the Windows Phone. Initially available for the Xbox and now ported for the Windows Phone 7 as well. We blogged about Janelle and her company here.
We also had a great line up of panelists that were there to provide their feedback and insight on the applications created.
The panelist were
1. Alex Toh, President, Mobile Alliance Singapore
2. Loo Cheng Chuan, Principal, Singtel Idea Factory
3. Alvin Yap, CEO, The Mobile Gamer
4. Nelson Allen, Director, Microsoft
Aside from showcase of applications, Caroline Yeung of Young Upstarts also shared her expertise on Public Relations during the session. You can view here coverage of the event here.
