Taipei, Dec. 28 (CNA) Taitung County's star-watching campaign clinched the top honor at the 2024 Spark Design Awards, marking the third consecutive year the county has gained international acclaim for the event, according to a press release from Taitung County government on Saturday.
"Starry Taitung," organized by the Taitung County government since 2018, was one of only five winners to receive the Platinum Award in a global competition that featured over 200 entries advancing to the second-round review, according to the winners list announced on Dec. 7.
The campaign also secured its place as the sole Platinum winner in the "Experience" category, recognized for enhancing user experience across all stages, from development and design to marketing and service, the U.S.-based awards said.
