The first prize winner will walk away with a cash award of Rs.12,000 and the second and third prizes will carry awards of Rs.7,500 and Rs.5,000 respectively.

A summer project work done by students allows to showcase their capabilities when it comes to applying their academic knowledge in real life situation. But today, even good students are not using this opportunity, opting for a routine/mediocre project which can be completed relatively easily. However, such projects do not grow either the abilities of the student or their understanding of real life business situations.

A spokesperson for Marvist WebSolutions said, “A challenging project done in real life situations is essential for preparing the student for the realities of his/her first job. Marvist WebSolutions is coming up with the contest to encourage such projects that offer practical solutions to business problems.”

Marvist WebSolutions is seeking to identify students who introduce new concepts, have strong knowledge of marketing, show rigorousness in research and are diligent in executing marketing principles. The project must involve strategic marketing with a combination of academic knowledge and industry. Students are expected to put in a minimum of 4 weeks (180 working hours) into the project. Preference will be given to projects dealing with Internet marketing and problems faced by professional small companies.

20th January 2012 is the last date for submitting the project. The winners will be given the prize money in cheque along with the letters. This will also be publicized.
