Adobe to give away School Innovation Awards
Adobe Systems Incorporated, leading software developers, on Monday announced the launch of the second annual Adobe Asia Pacific School Innovation Awards.
The company will be accepting submissions starting immediately.
Inaugurated in 2009, the program generated extensive interest in its first year, with 550 entries from across Asia Pacific. This year the competition will once again be open to 14-19 year old students in Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand.
Last year, there were 51 entries from India, from which 3 were selected among 45 shortlisted entries.
?Last year?s competition saw the region?s participants pushing the envelope and displaying an astonishing degree of creative talent, setting the bar high for the 2010 Adobe Asia Pacific Innovation Awards,? said Mark Phibbs, Senior Director Marketing Adobe APAC.
?In 2010, we hope that young people across the Asia Pacific region will continue to surprise us with their ability to create and we look forward to receiving even more extraordinary works from tomorrow?s creative leaders,? Phibbs said.
With an Open Theme, students this year have been presented with the luxury and challenge of a blank canvas and are encouraged to develop and illustrate an idea or story through their submission.
The deadline for submissions is December 20, 2010 and winners will be announced before January 15, 2011.
