Of the competition, the company's founder Vangile Makwakwa said, “This competition is a great way for young and upcoming slam poets to start sharing their work with a global audience and also be part of a community that is intent in freeing itself from self imposed limitations. We are looking to reach college and university aged between 18 and 21 years, who love slam poetry and want to share their work but are unable to because they cannot get into 21+ bars.”
