Last date for M.AD Quiz entries extended

The Advertising Club Bombay has announced that the last date for sending in entries for participation in this year's M.AD Quiz has been extended to the evening of December 9. Earlier, the last date for entries had been set as December 5, but a communiqué from the Ad Club states that the deadline extension has been made "on public demand". For the record, this year, the Bombay Ad Club is hosting the annual M.AD Quiz (the Marketing and Advertising Quiz) on December 12, at the City Studio, Kamala Mills Compound, Lower Parel, Mumbai.

A spokesperson connected with the quizzing event - which will be conducted by ex-adman and popular quizmaster Derek O'Brien - informs that this year's quiz will be "quite an extravaganza, as we have the support of sponsors Radio City, Amaron and Aaj Tak, while CHannel [V] is our event partner". He adds that competing teams stand a chance of winning big cash awards and prizes sponsored by companies such as Godrej, Pantaloons, Levi's, Sansui and Kodak. He also reveals that quite a few teams have already confirmed their participation. These include, among others, Zenith Media, Lowe, Leo Burnett India, JWT India, O&M India, Madison Communications and Nicholas Piramal.

The entry fee for this year's M.AD Quiz has been fixed at Rs 3,000/- per team (each team consisting of two members). Organizations are free to send in more than one entry/team. Entry forms can be downloaded from agencyfaqs! and sent to the Ad Club. Teams interested in participating can also get in touch with the Ad Club Secretariat for entry forms at 022-23894091, 022-23810213 and adclub@vsnl.com. © 2003 agencyfaqs!
