FAQ

Quick answers

Does Donjo score teams automatically?

No. The organiser watches the entries and marks the winner. Nothing is scored by software.

Is there a judging panel with scorecards?

Not for challenge entries. The account that posted the challenge reviews the entries and marks the winner. Donjo has a judge account type, but it is for viewing venture applications and pitch decks, not for scoring challenge entries.

Can we run several challenges?

Yes. Each has its own brief, prize, deadline and submissions.

How do entries work?

Each participant submits one video per challenge, recorded in the browser or uploaded.

Do participants need accounts?

Yes. A profile turns one entry into a lasting portfolio.

Can sponsors hire from the event?

Sponsors with an employer account can shortlist and message participants they want to talk to.

Does Donjo handle prize money?

No. Donjo records the prize on the challenge page. It does not collect or pay out money.
