In recognition of their ideas for new products, Berlin-based O&O Software GmbH together with its Danish partner Chocolate Cloud ApS are among the best ten participants in the category Development, beating out competition from 35 countries and 5 continents.
The Telekom Challenge is an international scientific competition awarding prizes of over 700.000 Euros, sponsored by the Deutsche Telekom AG under the supervision of T-Labs. Awarded will be innovative concepts for the home networks of tomorrow.
National and international universities and research centers along with businesses and start-ups have been invited to present their ideas for developing future, long term improvement of secure data distribution in home networks.
We are extremely happy to be part of the Top 10 selected in the Deutsche Telekom Challenge. In our partnership with O&O Software, we’re making data protection easy for our users while giving them full control over where their data is saved and with whom they wish to share it. The key is not to trust the cloud, but use it anyway.
The fact that our concept was chosen to be among the best ten is a great honor for us. Together with our partner, Chocolate Cloud, we want to develop a new approach for protecting the home user’s data which practically brings the cloud into the home.
