The Spiffy team is proud to partner Founder Institute to offer 3 scholarships to Windows Developers in their upcoming April Semester 2013! Developers can earn yourself a scholarship through BizSpark Launch Academy.
BizSpark Launch Academy is a competition for startups and individual developers based in Singapore who are building applications for the Windows Store, Windows Phone 8 or on Windows Azure.
You will stand the chance to receive expert training and feedback to launch startup companies with Founder Institute beginning in April 2013.
And… that’s not all!
You can also participate in Windows Startup Challenge with the app ideas that you pitch through BizSpark Launch Academy. This could lead you to launch your Windows Store app at DEMO Mobile, a global launchpad for the most innovative mobile startups held in April 2013 in San Francisco, California.
So, if you have the ability to prototype a Windows Store app, quickly iterate to design, and bring your app to life, send in an image of the prototype to win8sg@microsoft.com with a quick overview of the app and personal particulars by 8th Feb 2013.
More details of how to enter can be found at http://academy.weshipcode.com.
You can also tweet about your app building process or prototypes with #app4theWIN.
