Project GO will open opportunities for more Filipino entrepreneurs to take the next steps in pursuing their business ventures confidently during the pandemic. Working with AXN, we want to encourage Filipinos to act now and make their idea real,” shares Tina Shieh, Marketing Director for GoDaddy Asia. Project GO brings together different communities, teams, experts, tools and know-how to take dreams to reality, with a beautiful and professional looking online presence using GoDaddy’s integrated suite of online tools.”

To further support the Project GO campaign, GoDaddy has activated the GoDaddy Asia Facebook page to help reach, inspire and connect with entrepreneurs, and equip them with insights and tips to launch and manage their own businesses. These insights can help small business owners and entrepreneurs realize the full benefits of being online.

The audition process for Project GO starts with an open invitation to submit applications via www.axn-asia.com/ProjectGO. Anyone who embodies an entrepreneurial spirit, a keen business mindset, or has an existing small business, is welcome to apply.

Twenty (20) applicants with the most compelling ideas will have the chance to pitch to a distinguished panel of mentors and established Filipino business experts via video conferencing. Shortlisted entries will be based on the following criteria: originality, marketability, feasibility, and presentation performance. Business Mentors will select the top four (4) big ideas whose entrepreneurs will participate in the next phase: “Bootcamp Sessions.” Contestants will undergo rigorous digital training and coaching to prepare them for the finale. In the “The Big Pitch” episode, entrepreneur finalists will present their final pitch to a panel of Businesses Experts, in hopes of being awarded the Php one (1) million pesos prize money.
