Having been in the Internet products space for over a decade, we could see the need for a common platform for both design professionals and students to collaborate, compete and be rewarded for their efforts.” The first competition is open from July 1 to August 1, 2009. The top three designers in both the Graphic and UX competitions will win Rs 20,000, 10,000, and 5,000 respectively (six prizes in total for both challenges). <br /></p>
