Format

Submission format – this is up to you! We prefer PNG or JPEG but remember, visual design is part of the judging criteria so put those design skills to use! We want something we can share with the world. Or at least those in the OC network. For sizing, try and make possible to share on social – long, skinny ratios don’t work too well.  

Submissions EXTENDED

Submissions should be emailed to con.snp@gmail.com by November 21st by 11:59pm ET. The SNP Executive will select the semi-finalists and public voting through social media will begin at the end of November. Winners will be announced at the beginning of December 2018.

Prizes

The first place winner will receive one free registration for the OC Summit in Ottawa, ON, April 23-26, 2019. There will be prizes for second and third place finalists. All semi-finalists will be featured at the OC Summit.
