INTERNATIONAL EDITORIAL- DESIGN & RESEARCH FORUM INTRODUCTION
Why should I take part in this competition? In the magazine “Page” there was the following quote from a designer about this:
“We have been in agreement for some years that there is no cheaper advertising than participation in design competitions. How much more would we have to spend without this simple method in order to attract attention! And what’s nicer than the accolade of colleagues?”

INTERNATIONAL EDITORIAL- DESIGN & RESEARCH FORUM INTRODUCTION
However, there is always the problem that not all submissions can win. Maybe this quote helps:
“The important thing in the olympic Games is not winning but taking part, for the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.” Pierre de Coubertin, 1908

No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him.
