Results of the great contest held by our Israeli office

The May 14, 2012

Ringbow was the lucky winner of the contest organised by our office in Tel Aviv and won a 5-day stay for 2 to take part in the Futur en Seine festival held next June 14th to 24th: this is a tremendous opportunity for Ringbow to meet French and international ordering parties, service providers and innovative companies.

The contest closed last week. 30 projects of great quality were examined by a jury whose members were:
- Yalhal Zilka, Magma Venture Fund ($900m)
- Moran Bar, NewsGeek
- Irit Israeli-Kahana, AfterDocs 
- Michal Shik, Start-up Manager at Manufacturers Association
- Marion Fevrier, Futur en Seine Director, Cap Digital 
- Daniel Bessis, Paris Region Economic Development Agency representative in Israel

Headed by Eifrat Barit, Ringbow's project introduces a ring which can add functionalities when interacting with touchscreens and playing a video game, writing/drawing, surfing the web etc. In fact, the project has won other prizes, particularly in the United States, and it could have some impact on our digital habits!
