Smart Launchpad 2016 Comes to a Close

This weekend the lives of three budding Pinoy YouTubers changed for the better. Lesha Litonjua, Mary Joyce Lapena, and Tops were declared as the top three grand winners of Smart Launchpad 2016. They bested 1500 other applicants (narrowed down to 100 who attended the weekend workshop) and as their prize, they’ll be sent to Los Angeles to be mentored by the Filharmonic! They’ll even be able to do a collaboration video with the Fil-am group A Cappella viral sensation.

Due to the massive success of the effort, Smart also announced that they are already planning Launchpad 2017. If you guys missed your chance this year, make sure you get ready and go for it in 2017. This can potentially be the biggest online reality show/contest in the country. 😛

*On a side note, this writer was invited to be one of the speakers for the weekend workshop. We put together a quick 3-minute video which will show you what we saw during the last day of the workshop. We were able to meet some of the top Youtubers in the PH as well, namely Bogart the Explorer and Nicole Andersson! Make sure you check out the embedded video at the top of this post.
