Today Governor Roy Cooper encouraged high school students across North Carolina to participate in the state's first application development competition. Ready, Set, App! teams of 3 to 5 students are challenged with developing a functional and original Android mobile application to solve a real-world problem in their school or community.

"Students see the world through fresh eyes. Their creativity can find solutions we may not know we need but soon cannot live without," said Governor Cooper. "The Ready, Set, App! challenge is a way for North Carolina's high schoolers to change the world for the better, and I encourage interested students to find a team and get coding."

Ready, Set, App! is a collaborative effort between Lenovo and the North Carolina Business Committee for Education, a non-profit within the governor's office. . All ninth – twelfth grade public and charter school students are eligible and there is no cost to participate.
