Challenge Summary
Welcome to Web Summit T-Shirt Design Challenge.
In 4 years, Web Summit has grown from 400 attendees to over 22,000 from more than 110 countries. It’s been called “the best technology conference on the planet”. But we just think it‘s different. And that difference works for our attendees, ranging from Fortune 500 companies to the world’s most exciting startups:
- The event is similar to SxSW - very cool, innovative and different.
- Attendee’s are a mix of Developers, Entrepreneurs and ‘C’ Level individuals.
- The vibe is very chilled, fun and exciting.
Your job is to create an amazing t-shirt design for Web Summit.

T-Shirt Design Considerations:
- Design must be very simple.
- Aimed at people who would think ‘that’s cool’ - even a little edgy.
- Remember you are designing for print media - this means no gradients and try to stay away from designs that are too intricate, as they would be hard to reproduce on fabric.
