This phase of the competition is focused on tackling challenges facing the health sector in Malawi.  The theme is “how can mobile technology address the health sector issues in Malawi?” The winner of JMAC will be given seed money of USD2000 and will be nested in mHub to further develop the application into a proper, profitable business through technical assistance and support from local and international resources.

The Jobonology Mobile App Challenge will run for 10 weeks starting from 1 May 2015 to 10 July 2015 and the best mobile application(s) will be given seed money of USD2000 and will be nested at mHub’s incubator in Lilongwe. In addition, MyJobo.com will provide support to the winning idea(s) to develop them into proper businesses utilizing its international network of developers and advisers.

“mHub is very excited to have this partnership with Myjobo.com that fits into our core business.  Malawi has a lot of hidden talent in software development and we hope this competition will help identify such talent,” said Rachel Sibande, Founder and CEO for mHub Malawi’s first Tech Hub.

“Myjobo.com has found the best partner that fits into its vision of youth being assisted to develop into successful entrepreneurs. The Jobonology Challenge is just the beginning of things to come,” remarked Bertha Mambala, Country Manager for Myjobo.com.
