Judge in the Givsly x SuitUp Bootcamp marketing competition
This year’s challenge was to create a socially-inclusive marketing campaign for a brand (Instagram, Oreo, Taco Bell, or Wendy's) that targets Gen Z and drives sales through digital and mass media outlets.
The goal by the end of the experience is to have these students see the corporate world as a part of "their world" and know that job titles such as CEO, CMO, Creative Director, Media Strategist, are in their grasp…Judge in the Givsly x SuitUp Bootcamp marketing competition
This year’s challenge was to create a socially-inclusive marketing campaign for a brand (Instagram, Oreo, Taco Bell, or Wendy's) that targets Gen Z and drives sales through digital and mass media outlets.
The goal by the end of the experience is to have these students see the corporate world as a part of "their world" and know that job titles such as CEO, CMO, Creative Director, Media Strategist, are in their grasp.
SuitUp equips students for life beyond the classroom by partnering with schools/youth organizations and businesses to develop, organize, and implement engaging educational competitions in communities across the US, Canada, and the UK. Students need to be active learners and innovators when it comes to career awareness and their education — not passively listening to professionals at a career day. -
