What is Unilever Africa Idea Trophy?
Unilever Africa idea trophy is a prestigious business and leadership challenge for university students across Africa.
It is an annual competition that started in 2011 in Nigeria and 2013 in Ghana, and evolved into an african regional competition by 2015.
It is a fun yet challenging and creative experience where students figure out how business works in real life while developing their own skills and competencies.
Every year, the employer brand selects a particular brand as focus for the idea trophy.
Life buoy was selected in 2014, Rexona was selected in 2015, closeup in 2016, lipton in 2017 and this year (2018) Omo was selected.
Idea trophy is an outlet for undergraduates across africa to brainstorm and watch their ideas come to reality.
Phases involved in the Unilever Africa Idea Trophy!
--How to Prepare For the Unilever Idea Trophy.
This year's challenge is very simple and is categorized into four phases.1.)
The first phase is the application/ entry phase where each and everyone of the applicants is expected to form a team of three and brainstorm on a tv advert idea for the omo brand.
In not more than 300 words, draft your own unique TV advert for the popular "OMO" brand (washing soap) that illustrates how "getting dirty helps children learn great values and make them better ultimately"
Now here is the thing.
Unilever encourages creativity. A couple of people ask if the entry should be in form of a story or a script.
But the answer is, Just put it anyhow (as long as it is readable and understandable) Think out of the box.. get creative!
The first phase is very important as it is going to determine your fate and that of your team too.
Take out time to think it through before you submit your entry because once you do, there is no going back.
2.)
The second phase of the competition is a video presentation.
Yes... you are going to produce your advert idea.
Now you see why you need to plan very well with your team before applying?
3.)
The third phase is the semifinals which is going to hold in lagos.
It is going to be a 3 days bootcamp where every team is going to be drilled thoroughly.
Do not forget that it's going to be an all expense paid trip (courtesy of Unilever).
Your flight ticket to and fro, hotel bills, feeding (buffet service) and lots of other juicy stuff
You'll also get the opportunity to be mentored by top employees of unilever.
The bootcamp is going to feature Youth employability clinics, Cv vetting, Mock interviews, career counselling etc.
You'll also get to meet great minds across africa.
4.)
The final phase is the grand finale which is going to hold in south africa where the top three teams proceed to represent Nigeria.
It is going to be an all expense paid trip too.
