Thanks for your interest in the Digital Open: an Innovation Expo for Global Youth!

Do not wait until the last minute to submit your project! The final deadline for submissions is August 15, 2009, but projects posted before the deadline will benefit significantly from feedback from the Digital Open community.

We are giving away more than $15,000 worth of very cool prizes including laptops, video cameras, recycled billboard backpacks, solar-powered gear and more. We've already received 49 projects from eight countries: Argentina, Canada, India, Russia, Spain, Ukraine, the UK and the US!

Remember that the Digital Open is more than just a contest—it's also a community. You can build a reputation among peers and draw attention to your own work by winning portable digital badges for taking a quiz or writing an essay about open innovation or even by collaborating with others and giving good feedback!

The future is yours to make! Get started at http://digitalopen.org
