For 7 years the Qantas Spirit Of Youth Awards have helped emerging talent (under 30) step up in the world. In 2012 SOYA goes 365 with a different category closing each month and more categories on offer including Interactive Content & Gaming. Winners travel overseas with Qantas to creative hotspots, enjoy mentorships with creative industry leaders and receive cash. First closing date is Fashion 9 Dec

SOYA 365 is a creative melting pot spanning 11 key creative disciplines.

SOYA provides practical support in the form of an overseas trip and tickets to the hottest industry events and experiences that money can't buy plus $5,000 in cash.

But the real incentive is the opportunity to build a professional mentoring relationship with creative leaders (like Marc Newson, Zimmermann, Ashley Ringrose and Brad Eldridge from Soap Creative, Lee Groves and the MCA's Liz Ann Macgregor) helping young innovators expand their horizons, build up their business base, and learn the ropes from leading industry icons and some of the greatest creative minds in the world.
