GOMC: what are the others teams doing?
Posted by Team 1 // 0 comment
If there’s something for sure about the GOOGLE ONLINE MARKETING CHALLENGE (GOMC), it’s that the competition will be tough! Indeed, more than 20,000 students, from 61 countries have taken part in the GOMC.
The main particularity of this challenge is that it’s open to all students. No need to be a marketing guru!!!
As testimony of the huge range of universities or colleges:
College of Aviation And Management Studies (Nigeria)
University of Otago (New-Zeland)
National Hotel and Tourism Institute (Yemen)
Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru (Peru) …
It’s pretty hard to find information about other competing teams. It seems that they’re not much talkative about their participation. While searching the Web (obviously via Google) I discovered GOMCHA, the unofficial social network for international teams competing in GOMC. In this website, I found out that most of the teams have already started their campaign.
I got in touch with a member of the social network (and also member of the Global Academic Judging Panel, but I wasn’t aware of it at first!), I learnt that about half of the teams have already accomplished their campaign.
I don’t really know how they managed to finish so fast because, while writting this post, we’re still working on our pre-campaign report!
Anyway, as the proverb says: “To win a race, the swiftness of a dart availeth not without a timely start“!
