About the competition (Source; Nokia)
Nokia recently announced the opportunity for innovative companies to
win the chance to open contract negotiations to supply Nokia. The
Technology Innovation Competition is seeking innovations with
particular focus on miniaturization, enhancing device performance and
reducing environmental impact. Entrants must submit a descriptive
technology abstract together with key differentiators and its
advantages including fact based indication of the maturity level and application areas and be ready to apply their solutions to the mobile market.
The competition has four streams:
1. ‘Mobile Multimedia Experience’ seeks innovations in the areas of audio, camera and display technologies
2. ‘Future Device Architecture’ demands innovations in processing speed and energy consumption
3. ‘User Interfaces’ requires innovations that boost intuitiveness and haptics
4. ‘Touch and Feel’ is looking for innovations in look & feel, form factor, durability and movement
Three finalists will be selected from each of the four streams.
The 12 finalists will be invited to participate in an innovation
exhibition at Nokia headquarters in Finland in April 2007 where they
will demonstrate their innovations and discuss them with Nokia decision
makers.
