The 2010 Calling All Innovators contest has a special prize for developers who submit locally relevant applications and content for use on Nokia devices by consumers living in Pakistan. The best entry by a developer based in Pakistan will receive a special prize of 1,000,000/- PKR in cash. Additionally, two runners-up will get 500,000/- PKR in cash and 300,000/- PKR in cash respectively. And remember, this is an additional incentive – you could still be a global winner in one of the four categories!*
Here’s what you need to do for a chance to win the special prize in Pakistan:
- Check out the contest categories to determine which category best fits your skills and interests, and then decide what kind of apps consumers in your region would want.

For a qualified entry, you must submit all of the files required for a successful installation of the app, and let us know which Nokia devices can run the app. Then, tell us about your app, and what makes it unique and appealing for consumers. Optionally, you can include supporting documentation about how your application works, what inspired you to create it, etc.
