| - Who Enters: Students, Academics, Entrepreneurs, professionals, and community groups can enter submissions as an individual or as a team. You must be 18 years of age or older to enter the contest. Who can vote: The public can see all of the entries and rank them 1-5 stars. The public can rank each entry up to 1 time per day. What: Create a submission with a clear connection to Pittsburgh and Innovation. Individuals and Teams are welcome to use any form of media they find compelling including, but not limited to simulations, podcasts, video, flash games, social networking applications, blogs, and static images (but please no business plans!). The submission can be your innovation itself (if it is interactive like a game) or just something that discusses and showcases your innovation (like in a video). This submission can be accompanied to a link to another website for further information. Submitters allow the GO KIZ and its partners to use the image and submission for marketing technology in the Pittsburgh region. When: Submissions are accepted from 12:00:01 AM EDT August 26, 2008 to 11:59:59 PM EDT October 26, 2008. Ranking by the public will occur simultaneously from August 26, 2008 to October 26, 2008, so get your entry in early for the most exposure! Winners: Finalists will be highlighted at local Pittsburgh events and in press releases. At the end of the contest period, The Greater Oakland Keystone Innovation Zone (GO KIZ) will select the one winner from each category: Judges’ Award- $20,000 for the highest ranked entry by our judging panel Peoples’ Choice Award- $10,000 for the entry with the highest combination of rank and page views. At this time we are not releasing the details of this calculation as we do not want anyone to attempt to alter the rankings artificially or use a program to increase their likelihood of winning. If GO KIZ suspects that artificial methods were used to increase the ranking of an entry, then the submission may be disqualified. Submission Details: All submissions must be uploaded through this website (pittsburghinnovates.com) in order to be considered All submissions must include an image. This image will be used as a thumbnail for your entry on our website! We recommend using an image that best describes and attracts voters to your innovation!
