Startup Open, a global competition to identify and recognize startup companies

Startup Open, a featured event of Global Entrepreneurship Week, is a global competition to identify and recognize startup companies founded between GEW 2012 and GEW 2013. It is open to any entrepreneurs who have just started, or are about to start, a new venture and have a “startup moment” between November 18, 2012, and November 24, 2013.

Startup Open will announce and recognize the global ‘GEW 50’ – 50 of the most promising ventures from around the world, which will be selected by a range of criteria including strength of concept, growth projections, and knowledge of the market. Those 50 companies will then compete for a handful of prizes with the winners announced during Global Entrepreneurship Week, November 18-24, 2013.
