Winning teams are selected by Googlers and an independent Panel of Academics, based on the success of their campaign.
Apart from gaining hands-on digital marketing experience, students compete for some great prizes:
- The global winners and their professor win a seven-day trip to San Francisco, including one day at Google Headquarters in Mountain View, California, to meet Googlers from the AdWords, University Programs and Marketing teams.
- The global winners also receive computing devices along with other Google products.
- Digital devices for all global and regional winners across all categories including their mentoring professors.
- Regional AdWords Business category winners, win trips to regional Google offices.
- The opportunity to win donations worth a total of $30,000 for the non-profit partners.
Over 65,000 students from almost 100 countries have participated in past years.
In order for student teams to participate in the competition, they first need to have a professor register. Professors can register from February 26th until May 14th. Please note that student registration will open March 5th.
