Participants who have not been named ‘Finalists’, whatever their progress in the competition and whatever their result, will be offered support towards our e-commerce network. They will integrate our e-commerce network where they will be able to sell their beautiful creations and will thus be able to benefit from advertising campaigns and other advantages linked to their e-commerce contract. In view of the international health crisis, the company has also subsidized the subscription fees to our e-commerce site network for a period of one quarter or three (3) months, a value of $1,200.00 (Applicable country currency)
If we are still confronted with a global health crisis such as Covid-19 a year from now or even 3 months from the beginning of the competition, we will have no other choice but to postpone it again as we don’t want to condone the gathering of hundreds of people at the same place, considering what we have seen thus far regarding this virus. Hopefully, Covid-19 will have been a thing of the past and the world will have discovered a vaccine against this life-threatening pandemic.
If a candidate is caught or found guilty of cheating (including falsification), he/she will be immediately excluded from the competition and will be permanently banned from submitting his/her candidacy for any competition, regardless of the country of entry.
Best Designer Competition is the competition where designers must reveal themselves through their own exploits, not by taking advantage of the work of others. We will not tolerate cheating.
