Web Ready - the largest independent competition of technology companies in Eastern Europe - not only changed the name, but also significantly revised its concept. From a traditional competition,
GoTech has become an integrator of the best technology companies into a business of strategic partners. Call for applications opened on March 15, and the first results will be announced on October 6, 2016, when the GoTech Forum will be held as part of GoTech.

In essence, GoTech will not only collect applications and evaluate technology small and medium businesses, but also “pack” it for the needs of strategic partners, as well as tracking projects interesting to strategists. Participants will receive additional funding opportunities and access to corporate resources, and strategic partners will receive technology projects prepared for implementation.
