Pncc Uniform Design Contest

Summary

Announcing PNCC’s uniform design contest!

We're calling on visionaries and artists to create designs for wearable art that captures the essence of PNCC—a harmonious blend of high-tech expertise and treasured Palauan motifs. This design competition is your chance to help us express our unique identity.

Dare to reimagine what a uniform can represent, creating visual ambassadors of a brand that connects people, not just through products and services, but through shared values and a collective heritage. Your design could redefine the way we wear our identity, both as a company and as a community.

Prizes

  • If your design concept is selected to be developed for printing on PNCC’s new uniforms, you’ll receive a cash prize of $1000!

  • Two Runner-ups will receive a consolation prize of $100 Airtime each.

How to Enter

  • To enter the Contest, create a graphic design concept sketch that can be adapted to print on different types of clothing items and related, such as Polo shirts, Work shirts (for techs), Office shirts, and Consumer wear and merchandise (merch) like t-shirts and tote bags.

  • You may submit up to 3 different design concepts (sketches).

  • Submit your entries via email to contest@pnccpalau.com.
