Atlanta, GA (PRWeb) February 7, 2007 -- VIA Networks USA, an Atlanta-based dedicated Web hosting and managed services company, today announced its sponsorship of WebChallenge 2007, an annual educational event of the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) and Web design competition providing scholarships for Georgia high school students.
Started in 1998, WebChallenge has served as an annual Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) educational event designed to get Georgia high school students excited about using Web and Internet technologies.
WebChallenge 2007 participants will create Web sites based on the theme, “Entertaining the Web.” Winning teams will compete for up to $15,000 in college scholarships. The winners are selected based on their creative approach to designing and developing an entertaining Web site.
“WebChallenge is one of the most exciting youth events in Georgia’s technology community,” said Darin Elkins, Managing Director of VIA Networks. “Today’s high school students know more about designing and creating engaging and entertaining Web sites than many college graduates and long-time professionals.”
VIA Networks USA joins a group of leading businesses in Georgia that support Web Challenge, including SAP, The TAG Foundation, Georgia Institute of Technology, Four Spots, Webmasters International and GlobalSpeak.
“WebChallenge is a great opportunity for our youth to gain hands-on training with today’s technologies,” adds Elkins. “Many of these students have the capability and desire to become tomorrow’s technology leaders. We want to be connected with them along the way as they shape the future of our business.”
