Last August 2, kahitanoito attended the media launch of Philips Urban Adventure at National Sports Grill at Greenbelt, Makati City. The event was hosted by a former The Amazing Race Asia (TARA) Season 2 runner-up, Rovilson Fernandez. Mr. Rico Gonzales, CEO of Philips Electronics and Lighting Inc., joined Rovilson explaining what's in-store for those who will join the event, which is similar to the competition Rovilson and Marc Nelson joined before. Philips Urban Adventure is a one-day race around the Metro Manila, where 12 two-person teams will take on various physical and mental challenges, and get a chance to win Php 100,000 in cash and prizes. The competition, set for August 27, is one of the activities lined up for Philips’ anniversary celebrations, as the company marks 55 years in the Philippines.
Registration for the race is now ongoing, and interested teams may sign up at the official website, www.philipsurbanadventure.com, where they will be asked to upload a creative photo of themselves featuring anything related to Philips, such as a product, a store, or an activity that Philips is known for.
The photo must be accompanied by a short creative write-up describing the team and the photo concept, as well as explaining why they should be among the finalists. From the initial pool of entries, 24 teams will be shortlisted by Philips’ judging committee based on photo creativity (50%) and write-up creativity (50%). The 12 finalists will then be decided via public voting on the website.
