&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Cisco has an interesting innovation competition on-going - &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cisco.com/web/solutions/iprize/index.html&quot;&gt;I-Price&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
Cisco&#039;s CEO is inviting&amp;nbsp; all interested people to participate their innovation competition.&lt;br /&gt;
The winning team has an opportunity to be hired by Cisco, and get funding for their new business idea.&lt;br /&gt;
Cisco will be investing ~ $ 10 over three years to develop, staff and go to market with the selected idea.&lt;br /&gt;
There were over 1 000 ideas suggested in the first stage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.cisco.com/innovation/&quot;&gt;Cisco&#039;s innovation blog &lt;/a&gt;keeps people posted how competition proceeds.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Good example of crowdsourcing.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
