Young Lynx Competition
Are you an early career creative? The Young Lynx Competitions are where creative marketing professionals aged 32 and under working full-time in the region compete head-to-head. A chance to showcase their creative prowess and gain industry-wide recognition at the Dubai Lynx Awards Ceremony.

As a creative, I could connect with a lot of people from the same industry at different heights. Every young creative or marketer should participate in the academy. It will kickstart your journey.
