The contest offers students the chance to win some fantastic prizes. By developing their application for the Ricoh & Java™ Developer Challenge - Innovating Technology, the student or students could win a week's trip to JavaOne 2009 in San Francisco, USA. Even if they aren't the overall winner there are prizes throughout the contest for winners of each stage including a sought-after Sun SPOT (an experimental platform to inspire developers to build the next great toy, sensor, communication device etc.), and a trip to London for the Grand Final contestants.
Being involved in the Innovating Technology Challenge is a fantastic way to gain experience of developing an application in the business world and a great story for your Curriculum Vitae. In fact, previous contestants have found jobs as a direct result of the contest.
