Judging Criteria

  • TBD
  • Ability to Clearly Articulate What Your App Does
    Answer the basics: a) What does your app do? b) What makes it unique? c) What is your target market? d) Who is your customer?
  • Originality of Idea
    Would future customers support and reinforce your assumptions? Think of Customer Validation as ‘evidence’ to back up the core structure of your ‘theory’ (your Business Model). The more unique your concept, the more your app will be downloaded.
  • Technically Challenging Implementation
    Getting as far as possible in the development of your product/prototype not only helps give Judges a tangible vision of what the final product could be, but proves your strength and skills as a team.
