At the live judging, each team will have 10 minutes to present their campaign idea followed by a Q&A session (no time limit) with the jury. Live judging only for Young Spikes Integrated , Young Spikes Media and Young Spikes PR.
After all the teams have completed their presentations, the jury will deliberate on the Gold, Silver and Bronze entries. All the teams then gather again to hear the results.
