The deadline for the submission of digital and advertising entries for YoungGuns Awards 2009 has been extended to 6 November. This will be the final extension before the judging that commences shortly thereafter.

The Digital Awards initiative was launched this year.
The shortlist will be announced on 23 November and the finalists and winners on 27 November through YoungGuns' website and partners.

The YoungGuns are open to creative professionals and students who are under the age of 30 years. The nine-year-old awards platform celebrates work emerging from around the world. The focus is not necessarily on work for big brands or with huge budgets, but on ideas.

Last year, India had a total of six Bullets and four finalists.

Contract Advertising picked up a gold in the Print Charity and Public Service category and a silver in the Copywriting Campaigns category. JWT took two silver Bullets – one in the Art Direction Campaign category and the other in the Outdoor Campaign category.

The other agency that took a couple of Bullets was Ogilvy India – it won a silver and a bronze.

For this year, YoungGuns has launched a new website with a community section, where advertising professionals can share their portfolios with each other and develop peer group relationships globally. Since its launch in August, the community boasts of more than 840 members.
