At Vator, we’re always seeking to partner with great companies to provide unique opportunities to our members. If you or someone you know is a Web developer or designer, here’s a new competition that’s worth checking out or sharing.
Vator has partnered with Microsoft WebsiteSpark to launch the WebsiteSpark Web
developer and designer Competition to find
leading Web developers/designers and development teams.
WebsiteSpark is a program that was launched in
September. A sister program to BizSpark, WebsiteSpark is for independent
Web developers and designers, or small companies with fewer than 10
employees who do contract work and build client’s Web sites/Web apps,
like an outsourced dev shop. WebsiteSpark provides these Web Pros with
extremely low cost MS development tools, and new
business leads – customers who need work done, who are passed to
WebsiteSpark Web Pros.
WebsiteSpark is a three-year program with a
simple $100 program fee payable upon program exit.
The winner of the WebsiteSpark Web designer competition will
receive two free tickets to Vator Splash, a featured video
(see VatorProductions),
and a $5000 development design contract.
These prizes alone should be compelling enough to at least give the competition a shot.
But that’s not all. Additionally, the
winner will receive:
– Software from Microsoft WebsiteSpark,
including three Web site licenses for:
- Visual Studio
Professional - Expression Studio 3 (1 user) and Expression Web 3
(up to 2 users) - Windows Web Server 2008 R2
