Comment on Apps for development | Competition by the World Bank

Comments

First prize being $15,000 US DOLLARS, to me seems very low for creating an "app to help developing countries".

Is this competition more a gimmick than a desire?

I agree. Only motivation to do this would be notoriety/prestige. I think it may be also a way to push for people to use the WB data sets.
