Contestants will be required to deliver a digital advertising program that targets 18 to 24 year olds who frequently check in, tweet or tag themselves on digital media.

Entries will be evaluated by an expert judging panel with the top ten put to a public vote to shortlist four contestants who will pitch their campaign live on the ad:tech Sydney show floor to determine the winner.

As an integral part of the digital marketing and media industry, ad:tech is thrilled to provide the platform for this.”
