Adobe (Nasdaq:ADBE) is pleased to announce the winners of the
16th annual Adobe Design Achievement Awards (ADAA). Attracting
nearly 7,000 student participants from 65 countries, the ADAA is a
global digital media competition for student creators. As part of
its commitment to the next generation of creatives, Adobe connects
students to leading industry professionals, academic leaders and
top brands to foster future career development. A panel of design
experts from around the world chose one winning project from each
of the 14 categories, recognizing the work of future creative
leaders who shine in their technical ability, but also their
ability to present themselves and their work professionally.
Winning entries were selected based on their creative
originality, thought process, effectiveness and skill in applying
Adobe Creative Cloud tools. Winners will be flown to Adobe MAX 2017
in Las Vegas for career advancement opportunities, including
networking with industry leaders, an awards presentation with the
design community, and appearances on Adobelive.com. Winners will
also receive a one-year membership to Adobe Creative Cloud and are
eligible to be nominated to Adobe’s Creative Residency.
“There were some amazing entries this year and the winners are
clearly some of the most innovative thinkers, designers, and
creatives from the global student community,” said Shawn Cheris,
