The coveted YG Gold, Silver and Bronze trophies

Professional Award 

If you're young, talented, already creating great ideas and ready to be recognized as an up and coming creative on the global stage, then you've come to the right place.

To be named "YoungGun of the Year" is to be named the best young creative under 30 in the world - a pretty impressive statement on your CV. And you get a cash reward of US$20,000. That's almost half a year's wages.

But an even better boost for your career is that the ‘YoungGun of the Year" gets invited to join next year's YoungGuns jury. So you get to grease palms, swap mobile numbers and drink with some of the finest creative minds going around.

And if your ego isn't big enough after all that, every winner and finalist is showcased at http://www.ygaward.com/, appears in the annual and forms part of the work in the YoungGuns Travelling Exhibition.

So what are you waiting for? Enter YoungGuns and fast track your career.

"We're completely honored to be recognized for our work, we believe that winning at YGAward will be a stepping stone for us in our career in that it is such a respected show worldwide.

It's nice to know that YGAward honors the work done by the hardest working and lowest paid group in this industry when few others do"

Jeff Anderson and Isaac Silverglate (2007 YoungGuns of the Year)
