    The Europas, the European Startup Awards 2010 for tech companies, will be held on November 19 in London (tickets available here). Entrants have been informed by Crunchbase, our database of startups, and will be voted on by the industry. These results will influence a subsequent voting round from The Europas Advisory Board of experts, chaired by TechCrunch Europe.

    You can vote in all the categories here.

    If you want to suggest a company that you think should be voted on by the industry, then please suggest it in the comments – but it does not guarantee entry, and any suggested company must either be in CrunchBase already or be submitted to CrunchBase. The judges decision is final. If you want more information on any of these entries… look on CrunchBase.

    If you’re planning to come to the awards, you’re in for a treat. The cream of Europe’s startup scene attended last year to network with an amazing list of winners and finalists.

    To sponsor any category please contact TechCrunch Europe Events and Sponsorship Director Aléna Dundas on alena [@] techcrunch.com (@alenadundas on Twitter)

    Don’t forget to Tweet or share the voting pages to your social networks, and you can of course vote for yourself. Use the logo above on your site to encourage voting.

      Some glaring omission’s in the nomination list

      • http://twitter.com/mikebutcher Mike Butcher

        Feel free to suggest.

        • MichaelH

          How about dizeo, a children’s social network and education service? Really interesting UK based start up.

        • http://twitter.com/mikebutcher Mike Butcher

          You said glaring omissions (plural). That’s only one.

        • MichaelH

          Yeah another startup launching soon is mypolice, they are likely out of the scope of the Europas. But interesting project.

    • http://www.fastbutter.com Bigsunshinenr1

      Nice, I´m maybe gonna test to submit to this contest next year.Maybe…

    • http://www.skillendar.com Sundar Venkitachalam

      Hi Mike,

      Could you please consider Skillendar (http://www.skillendar.com ) for the new start-up category?

      I wish organisations like TechCrunch would focus on helping new and young entrepreneurs by giving visibility on such events than companies who already have got popularity and funding.

      Kind Regards
      Sundar

      • http://twitter.com/mikebutcher Mike Butcher

        First I’ve ever heard of it. Emailing the media when you launch is generally a good idea.

        • http://www.skillendar.com Sundar Venkitachalam

          Hi Mike,

          I agree that Skillendar is new and have only been launched a few weeks ago. However, I did contact all the media websites including Techcrunch multiple times about this launch. But for some reason everyone is ignoring my emails and calls.

          Anyway, thanks for visiting Skillendar (http://www.skillendar.com)

          Kind Regards
          Sundar

      Hi Mike!

      I would be glad, if you can add http://www.runtastic.com for best sports start up. We build a massive userbase (mainly in Europe) in our first year (we founded 10/2009) and had also an TC Europe Article in April.

      Thank you very much for your consideration!

      Kind regards,
      Alfred

      Mike Butcher, don´t you think the categories are too many? Too many awards dilutes the quality and reputation of the Europas.
