Nevermind, I might be wrong. It seems the second Prefacture award competition is for Startups:

And, it will be going on with the other Prefacture Ruby award competition:

Thank you for mentioning this competition, Kouhei Sutou

Thanks for the reply. 

The Fukuoka Prefacture IT award is a different competition that has been around for a while and isn’t directly about Ruby. For example, both the Fukuoka Ruby Award competition and the Fukuoka Prefacture IT Award competition happened in 2023.

It seems that it's renamed (?) to Fukuoka Future IT
Initiative Founding Commemoration Award:

But it seems that the information is only available in
