Here are 5 of our most commonly asked questions to help you with your entry. What are my real odds of winning? We expect around 1,000 people to enter with approximately 200 being named as winners or finalists. If I win, will I really be in Fast Company magazine? Yes! And on FastCompany.com. All winners and finalists will be recognized in print and online. Can I have more time to enter? Yes! Sort of. The deadline is December 7, BUT if you submit an entry before then you can continue to work on and finalize your entry until December 15. Is there a PDF of the application? Yes! All entries must be completed through the online entry form but you can download a pdf of the form here to work offline. I still have questions, who can I ask? Just reply directly to this email. We'll get back to you today. We promise. | | | | | Entry Deadline: December 7, 11:59pm PST |
