Project14 Prizes

Hi ! I'm a bit disappointed to see the change in prizes for the project14 competition. While I understand the decision to switch to a kit, I think many past participants were looking forward to the shopping carts.

The shopping carts offered a great opportunity for winners to experiment with new components for their next projects, learn more about Farnell and Newark's product offerings and provide valuable feedback through reviews and suggestions about the products and the shopping experience.

I hope this change doesn't discourage future participation in the competition.

    Hey javagoza ! I appreciate you highlighting this and I can definitely see the benefits to the shopping cart as a prize option. I'm sorry we've moved away from it, at least for now.

    Although I'm a relatively recent addition to the team, my understanding is that fulfilling shopping cart arrangements was at least partly a manual process which is why  - with changes in the team underway -  it was decided to use other prizes.

    That said, never say never. The team has settled down now and perhaps we will find a way to automate the process so we could potentially bring it back Slight smile  Out of general curiosity, if you could not have a shopping cart, is there another prize that would definitely make you sign up for a competition?
