In less than 8 years of its existence, Veeam has grown from a small startup with a team of 3 people to an international company with 17 offices around the world.
I will not go into the details of why the startup shot (
this is the topic of a separate article ). I will only write that the first client entrusted his money to the company back in 2008, and today, less than 6 years later, the total number of Veeam clients around the world is rapidly approaching 100 thousand.
On this occasion, Veeam arranges a
global competition with simple rules.
')
- The main prize is a round-the-world trip for one or two people with payment of accommodation with a total cost of USD $ 25.000.
- Other prizes include Windows Surface 2 Pro, iPad Mini, Google Glass (with a maximum price of USD $ 1,500), tickets to the annual Veeam conference with payment of the flight to the venue and hotel accommodation for 4 days.
Under the cut step by step instructions for participation.
A simple scheme for participation in the competition:
- Register on the contest page (name, email).
- Mark on the interactive map the place where our 100,000th client will come from.
How will the winners be determined?
- The one who guesses the location of the 100.000th client most precisely will get the opportunity to go on a world tour.
- Those who specify the location of customers with numbers 99.994-99.999 most accurately will get Windows Surface 2 Pro, iPad Mini or Google Glass.
You can also participate in a team: team up with friends in a group of up to 5 people and highlight an area on the map. The team that marked on the map the area of the minimum area, which includes the point where the anniversary client will come from, will receive gifts (for each team member, one of the following gifts):
- Windows Surface 2 Pro, iPad Mini or Google Glass (with a maximum price of USD $ 1,500).
- Ticket to the annual conference Veeam with payment of round-trip flights to the venue and hotel accommodation for 4 days (with a maximum cost of USD $ 1,000).
And the last - the participant must be at least 18 years old. A complete list of restrictions can be found here:
Terms and Conditions (in English). The list is short enough to give to participate in the competition, according to my feelings, most of the users of Habr.
If you have questions, ask. I will be glad to answer.
