Awards season for IBM Business Partners - Apply now!!!

It's awards season!!! No, I'm not talking about the Oscars or the Golden Globes - I'm talking about the IBM Beacon Awards!! Business Partners, it's up to you to nominate yourselves for these prestigious annual awards!

I hope to see all of our IBMPartnerWorld members and Business Partners nominate themselves for the fantastic solutions they've created using IBM products and services! It's so easy to nominate yourself and the outcome is well worth the time it takes to fill out the nomination form.

Finalists and winners of the 2015 IBM Beacon Awards will gain great exposure to IBM clients and the industry, it's a great way to differentiate yourself from your competitors, and ultimately it will help you sell, sell, sell! Awards will be presented at the PartnerWorld Leadership Conference.

Finalists and winners will receive one complimentary registration to the conference as well as promotion at the conference and on our PartnerWorld website.

Nominations close November 21, 2014 at 11:59 PM EST so get started on the application ASAP!

I think this is better than a Golden Globe, don't you?

Entrepreneurs Win with Augmented reality ! Check this out!

Imagine being able to see a printed car advertisement turned into 3D with your smartphone or mobile device. Or better yet, what if with your wearable device a board game came to life as a three-dimensional gaming experience? These scenarios are not fantasy; this is the world of WakingApp!

WakingApp, winner of SmartCamp Tel Aviv, is a startup that has developed solutions and a platform for creating advanced, interactive augmented reality with multi-user interaction, live data feeds, personalization, social activities, and live 3D games.

Here's what is really cool about their platform: it will enable anyone to create augmented reality! With their "drag & drop" platform, it is easy for anyone to start creating a 3D experience!

Already, WakingApp is working on a variety of augmented reality apps for different clients' marketing campaigns, including Nestle, Isuzu's interactive newspaper campaign, and Interactive AR books and board games.

I say WakingApp just might change the way we approach ads and games for good! Congratulations to WakingApp! Follow them on Twitter @WakingApp.
