In a press release, Visa said as of Wednesday eligible participants in the MENA regions can submit their business solutions that apply to three challenges in the Everywhere Initiative. The second challenge, called Airport Transit Challenge, is focused on how can startups leverage Visa’s APIs, mobile technologies and connected devices to transform their transit experience at airports. Visa said each challenge has been structured while keeping in mind the niche dynamics of the local landscape. Winners of the prize will be invited to a working meeting with Visa and may be presented with the opportunity to create a prototype. Visa will then select one overall winner to receive an additional $25,000.
