Have an early stage social technology startup and proximity to New York City? (and a tolerance for very short notice!)

Check out the ‘EXPANDMYBRAND’ Startup Challenge, a competition bringing together top brands with emerging marketing technology startups. The event, hosted by EDGE Collective, is happening next week on September 27th.

From the website:

“5 lucky startups will receive the opportunity to pitch their startup ideas to a panel of today’s top brands and social media thought leaders. The panel will ask the startups how they can “ExpandMyBrand’ and startups will have to answer how their product will boost brand reach and customer engagement.

If you’re lucky enough to win, you’ll be taken through our incubation program where you’ll receive $30,000 in incubation assets. This means office space, full time senior business development team, web development and design team, product sales assistant, customer introductions and everything you need to turn your product into a business and that business into revenue.”

Submission deadline is tomorrow, Friday September 21. If you have a working prototype of a marketing technology that’s bridging the gap between customers and brands, this may be a fun opportunity to take your development to the next level!
