The deadline for entries in a gigatown-related competition has been extended.

Chorus is offering $200,000 to a winning business start-up.

It's to encourage new business which fits in with Dunedin's gigatown win and associated ultra-fast broadband.

Initially the deadline was the 30th of January.

But that's now been extended until the 29th of May.

The winning business plan will include a service that relies on the ultra-fast broadband network currently being installed by Chorus across the city.

A winner is due to be announced in July.
