Digital publisher Yahoo!7 is on the hunt for its third batch of seven up-and-coming stars of the Australian and New Zealand media agency world with the prize of VIP places at Mumbrella360 in June up for grabs.
The Digital Stars program recognises the best-up-and-coming talent in the media planning and buying industry, and for the first time New Zealand are invited invited to apply.
Along with full access to the full three days of the Mumbrella360 conference in June the prize includes an all expenses paid trip to Sydney, a networking dinner with senior Yahoo!7 and Yahoo New Zealand staff and a photo shoot for professional head shots.
Yahoo!7 head of sales NSW and QLD Andrea Rule said: “The aim of Yahoo!7 Digital Stars is to identify the hottest young talent to represent their opinion and their agency at the biggest media and marketing event in Australia.
“We’re excited to be partnering with Mumbrella again to extend the program and focus on developing and acknowledging young talent, providing an important platform for young Australians to be recognised on the national stage.”
Those entering need to provide a 150 word submission on why they are a digital star of the future.
Entries are now open, and can be submitted via the Digital Stars website.
