Fantasy Shopper takes Gold

Fantasy Shopper has won first prize in Amazon Web Services Startup Challenge held in San Jose, CA last night. The winners are taking home prizes of $50,000 in cash, $50,000 in AWS credits, Gold support, technical mentoring, and a golden hammer. They are also the first non-US startup to win the contest which has been run since 2007. HackFwd is very proud of the well-deserved achievement of the team. Everything we see about Fantasy Shopper is impressive, so winning first prize three weeks after launch in a global contest with over 1,500 participants shouldn’t even be a surprise!

Huge congratulations from HackFwd to Chris Prescott and the rest of the Fantasy Shopper team. Check out the AWSChallenge Twitter stream here and stay tuned for more news.
