Austin, TX (PRWEB) March 07, 2014 -- Dumbstruck, (@DumbstruckApp) the social video app for iPhone that allows users to share mystery video messaging and capture their recipient’s reaction, is launching a first ever Startup Challenge for younger companies that are at SXSW looking for funding.

CEO, Peter Allegretti, explains it as playing-it-forward to younger startups who’ve come to SXSW looking to build their startup dream.

Dumbstruck is the brainchild of Peter and his CTO, Mike Tanski, who conceptualized, funded, built and launched the App in three months – from November of last year.
Dumbstruck has been featured on NYC’s Z100, Techcrunch, USA Today and a number of national and regional newspapers and blogs.

The Challenge is partnered with giveaways and prizes from Dumbstruck’s partners including Angel Hack, Gary Vaynerchuk, Momentum, #besomebody, Gunnar Optiks, Buzzstarter and several others that will be announced when the Challenge begins tomorrow (3/8/14) at SXSW.

If you’re a startup looking to enter, you can sign up by downloading the app, signing up and tweeting at @DumbstruckApp to sign up. You can also find more information here:
