#CreativeHack2017: a platform to showcase talent

Tiger Tail Digital in association with HackON presents #CreativeHack2017.

It's an exciting time to be alive. Soon we'll be driving electric cars (or they'll be driving us), we'll have smart homes, smart cities and smart everything! Not to mention that we may even have friends living on mars in our lifetime. What's next? Time travel?! The point is, technology is changing the way we do things, from daily life to the way we run our businesses. Nowadays, society expects a spectacle, something truly amazing, to tear their eyes away from the screens in their hands and pay attention. And that's exactly what we plan to do. On to the point of this story.

"#CreativeHack2017 - 25 & 26 March 2017 @ Workshop 17 in Cape Town -Giving creative talent a platform to showcase their talent, working alongside and presenting to revered industry leaders, with prizes to the value of R100 000* up for grabs"

Tiger Tail Digital presents #CreativeHack2017 in association with HackON and Workshop 17! Our 48 hour design hackathon with a twist. We're changing the digital game and launching our company in the spirit of innovation. We're also giving the up and coming best and brightest design talent a voice. Ordinarily, you would spend hours working on your creative pitch, with many a late night and possibly some sweat and tears (don't quote us on that). We are giving you the opportunity to use the biggest design event this year to date to prepare your creative, to showcase your incredible skills and take full advantage of the guidance provided by our mentors, some of the most revered professionals in the industry.

For starters, John Sanei, trend specialist, business strategist, public speaker, businessman and entrepreneur who has just been accepted into Singularity University along with mentors from the likes of Ogilvy and other big names. Not to mention that some have received a couple of Loerie awards for creative genius. You'll also get to pitch your work to an acclaimed panel of judges. All this while networking with industry experts and having ALL of the fun competing and working with other talented designers

We are looking for creative's, developers and business strategists who want to kick start an amazing career chapter in the creative industry. Tiger Tail Digital is turning the recruitment game on its head, recruiting top digital talent for organisations in an innovative and Agile way. You will be building our fantastically innovative brand identity!

#CreativeHack2017 is going to be epic, with some of brightest minds joining the competition. We are proud to present GirlHype and Code4CT as some of our partners, both are great initiatives in developing young Tech talent. This event sports some seriously impressive cash prizes for the winners and a fully paid for trip to Johannesburg* to pitch your world class work to the country's most prominent digital and design leaders, not to mention the spot prizes up for grabs over the weekend.

Space is limited, so get down to that registration page sooner rather than later, as registration closes on the 15th of March. What do you need to apply? Your own device, your A game and some mad skills.

Follow it on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter to stay in the loop! We can't wait to see all the exceptional talent that Cape Town has to offer!
