Here’s some great news for those of you who run your own business. If you’re running a start up, a small or medium business AND have been using Google products or tools to improve your business; you just might be eligible for the Google sponsored “Success Stories” competition that is held on a global scale.
What is “Success Stories”?
Are you using Google to do extraordinary things? Has technology enabled you to start new ventures, grow your business or affect the lives of those around you in a positive way? Then, Google Business Groups – an outreach initiative of Google – would love to hear from you. You can share your story for a chance to win $5,000 for your business. GBG in Colombo is conducting a global program to recognize start up businesses. If your business is in any of the following sectors and has benefited from using Google products, you will be eligible to submit your “success story” through GBG Colombo:
1) NGOs
2) Businesses in music/sports/entertainment
3) Technology related businesses
There is a prize money of $5,000 to be won for selected stories and your stories maybe featured in the next Google I/O as well.
For more information and updates, visit the Google stories page and the GBG Sri Lanka G+ page.
