From a professional translation service for Facebook messages to the first mobile payment system for bars and restaurants using only iPhones: the CODE_n finalists came up with some surprising and innovative solutions for all aspects of our mobile lives.
CODE_n Contest @CeBIT
From over 400 entries, the best 50 innovators have now been invited to present their ideas to industry experts at the CeBIT 2012 – in centrally located Hall 16, which has been specially designed by leading artists. A top-class jury will select the winner of the CODE_n Award, which is to be presented during the world’s largest technology fair on March 8, 2012.
A jury of experts, including Gabriele Fischer (brand eins), Lars Hinrichs (HackFwd), Carsten Knop (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung), Paulus Neef (PQuadra), Jens-Uwe Sauer (Seedmatch), Dr. Joseph Reger (Fujitsu) and Prof. Peter Weibel (ZKM), will draw up a short list of the ten top innovators for the final stage. On the third day of the fair, March 8, the winner of the EUR 25,000 CODE_n Award will then be chosen from this short list of candidates.
CODE_n will also feature a radical visual backdrop – the like of which has never been seen at the world’s leading digital economy event. Artist Tobias Rehberger and architect Jürgen Mayer H. have blended art and technology to create a unique Innovation Space in the 3,500 square-meter Hall 16 – providing the perfect setting for the CODE_n finalists and a platform for inspiration, dialogue and business.
The competition’s partners will also be showcasing their products and services. In addition to GFT Technologies AG, the global innovation initiative is being supported by Ernst & Young, Fujitsu Technology Solutions, Deutsche Messe AG, industry association BITKOM and the Karlsruhe-based ZKM.
