Whether you walk away with a prize or not, developing apps and content for Nokia Series 40 phones is a winning proposition. By distributing your content on Nokia Store, you reach more than 120 million consumers in over 190 countries. These consumers are currently downloading apps and content at a rate of 15 million downloads a day, and 42 per cent of the most recent billion downloads from Nokia Store were for Series 40 phones.
