*MONTREAL, April 8 -* C2-Montreal today announced a new global event,
the Emerging Young Entrepreneur 50 (*EYE 50*) international challenge,
that will raise the curtain on the technological innovators of
tomorrow.  C2-MTL will undertake a worldwide search for 50 youth under
30 who are revolutionizing the way we use and benefit from
technology.  This competition was inspired by new Innovation Partner
Intel, as part of their efforts to empower youth globally through
technology.

Starting today, the grassroots, social media-driven EYE 50 will
welcome submissions to a combination online peer-review and jury
consisting of Mouna Andraos (Daily tous les jours), Steve Brown (Intel
Futures Lab), Lotfi EL-Ghandouri (The Hub and Creative Society), Ian
Jeffrey (FounderFuel), and special advisor Marc Petit (independent
investor). Of the 50 best entries, 20 projects will be brought to
C2-MTL in May and their young creators assigned jury-member mentors to
help them network and develop their ideas with the
internationally-renowned leaders in business and innovation in
attendance.  Of the top 20, one will be selected to provide a keynote
talk on their project.

“Every day, young people all over the world are creating, coding, and
designing in basements, garages and bedrooms, inventing the Facebooks
and Googles of tomorrow, designing products and platforms that will
change the way we live and interact with each other,” said Benoat
Berthiaume, Chief Executive Officer of C2-MTL. “Together with Intel,
we want to learn from them and provide them with the kind of audience
that can give them a head start on changing the future today.”

Submissions to EYE 50 will be accepted as of April 8 through C2-MTL’s
website. The leading projects will be announced over the course of
April and the top 50 will be revealed May 1.

C2-MTL international business conference takes place May 21-23, 2013,
in Montreal.
