Google is going to hold a competition for Chinese programmers. This competition, ‘Google China Code Jam’, is an offshoot of the annual Google Code Jam competition and the prizes are worth $30,000.

Registration for the competition is open to participants and will end on December 12.

In the last Google Code Jam competition 14, 500 programmers from 32 countries participated and the winners got prizes worth $150,000.

In September 2005 Google announced Marek Cygan, a student at Warsaw University, as the grand prize winner of the 2005 Google Code Jam, Google’s annual computer programming competition. Cygan won the $10,000 grand prize.

Alan Eustace, vice president, Engineering and Research, Google Inc., said at that time, “It’s an honor to host the most talented computer programmers in the world. With more than twice as many participants in the Google Code Jam this year, competition was fierce. Congratulations to Marek and all of our finalists.” [source]
