The International Web Design Contest

Congratulations to the Cesart Team for winning the International Web Design contest - section Canada. Francois Arbour, Flash developer and co-owner of Premiumbeat.com is a member of the winning team. They received the first prize ahead of all other Canadian teams. They will be moving on to represent Canada in Limoges, France this coming February 2006.


The Web Design International Festival is a marathon type contest. Participants only learn at 8 AM what is the topic of the website they have to create. They are given 24 hours to develop the concept, create it on the spot, finalize it and present it to the judges. No sleep, lots of teamwork, non-stop programming, the project has to be ready at the 24 hour mark!

Congratulations to the whole team: François Maisonneuve, Pascal Gagnon, François Arbour and Philippe Archontakis.
