Phizzpop Design Challenge: Webby Awards and Microsoft Launch Web Design Challenge
January 12, 2010 | Levent OZLER
Microsoft and The Webby Awards kicked off the Microsoft PhizzPop Boys & Girls Clubs of America Design Challenge, giving interactive design agencies of all sizes a chance to showcase their ingenuity and expertise to help Boys & Girls Clubs of America redesign its Website for the new decade.
Microsoft and The Webby Awards selected Boys & Girls Clubs of America as the contest's beneficiary because they believe a more powerful Website combining the latest Microsoft tools and technologies with the latest design trends will help the 104-year old organization better communicate its mission of helping all youth reach their full potential.
Three finalist teams will win travel and hotel accommodations to MIX10, Microsoft's annual conference for web designers and developers, in Las Vegas.
At MIX, finalists will pitch their concepts live before a panel of judges from Microsoft, Boys & Girls Club of America and the International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences, which judges the Webby Awards.
The winning agency will receive $50,000 towards delivery of their design strategy and plan to Boys & Girls Clubs America, as well as a trip for two to the 14th Annual Webby Awards on June 14, 2010 in New York City, including travel and hotel accommodation.
The winning design will be announced during MIX10.
Deadline for entries is February 19, 2010.
