The Telecom Amazing Ideas Search

Telecom have launched the Amazing Ideas Search, in conjunction with the rollout of their Ultra Fast Broadband service. The promotion, which is aimed at primary and secondary schools, challenges students to think about how high-speed internet will impact their lives.

The promotion launched in late July, and runs through until September 28th (the last day of term three). "I’ve been really impressed by the creativity of kids around the country" Jason Paris, Telecom’s Chief Marketing Officer Telecom’s Amazing Ideas Search manager, said. "Often the best ideas are the simplest ideas and that’s what we are seeing – smart, simple ideas relevant to New Zealanders.”

If you're at school and have an idea that you think is worth submitting, you can find out more about the the Amazing Ideas Search at the official website. Prizes for winning submissions include tablets for students and cash grants for schools.
