The Europas have announced their list of nominees for the people’s choice award. For those who don’t know about The Europas, it is the European equivalent of the Crunchies, a startup award show hosted by TechCrunch in San Francisco. Startups from all around Europe have already submitted their nominations for a shot at one of the 20 awards available, which cover “best of” for various tech & internet sectors – you can see the entire list of awards here.
Likely due to its cultural shyness towards flaunting its talents, France tends to get minimal attention at these types of events, so I wanted to make it super easy for readers to vote. The voting is done by clicking a like button below the team’s name, so I just grabbed all the like buttons for French teams and brought them to you. No need to post a message to Facebook after clicking, though encouraging friends to vote is always nice as well:
