Creators,

It’s that time of year again - when we invite the winners of our NextUp contest into YouTube HQ and give them training to take their channels to the next level.  We love this time of year, and second only to spending time with our winners is seeing what they go on to do next :)

After reviewing hundreds of entries, we’re excited to announce this year’s Class of 2017...



On May 22nd, these creators will join us for week-long creator camp at the YouTube Space London. On top of video production workshops and coaching from the YouTube Partnerships team on how to grow their audience like a pro, creators will also meet a range of folks within YouTube to gain insights on the platform and on the industry. Winners will also receive a voucher for production equipment.

If you’re in France, India or Japan and would like to join us over at an upcoming NextUp, we’re currently accepting entries through Wednesday, May 17th. For more information, visit youtube.com/nextup and follow the action on Twitter with #YTNextUp.
