FamilySearch
International is looking for the next big social and mobile application that
will influence not only an industry worth billions, but also generations of
families—past, present, and future!
Held in
conjunction with RootsTech, happening February 3–6, 2016, at the Salt Palace
Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, the 2016 Innovator Showdown will be
a global innovation competition with $100,000 in total prizes for developers
and entrepreneurs with ideas and products that enable people of all ages to
discover, preserve, and connect with their families across generations.
Do you have a neat genealogy-related
social and/or mobile app idea? This might be your chance to make your idea into
a reality!
