ROK Entertainment Group, the mobile applications, technologies and services company, has launched the ROK Developer Challenge, offering an open invitation to developers around the world to submit their ideas, with a view to partnering with ROK on the commercial deployment of the best and most innovative new applications received.
ROK has amassed a suite of revenue-generating mobile applications and services, from high-quality on-demand streamed TV; content stored on and played from memory cards; mobile VoIP technologies; mobile social networking solutions; and push email services which it licenses to mobile operators and handset manufacturers worldwide. The company has been awarded five patents for its technologies to date and has filed a further 40 patent applications.
While we have our own in-house team of application developers, we have always welcomed new ideas from outside the company and, given the increased difficulty in fund-raising via the money markets at present, we believe now is the time to formalize a system where the best innovators in the development space can easily contact us, says ROK Chairman and CEO, Jonathan Kendrick. Were telling developers that if they have an idea for a new mobile product or service, wed love to hear to from them and we look forward to supporting the best new ideas, going-forward.
