After six weeks and almost a thousand entries, Microsoft Advertising has announced the leaders of the DQ pack – Asia’s digerati. 

Fadriga was crowned overall winner with a perfect score of 100, having completed the Digital Quotient challenge in 44 seconds. He wins a trip to the Spikes Asia Advertising Festival held in Singapore from 19 to 21 September 2010.

Microsoft Advertising has also announced the four runners-up of the DQ test: VJ Mendoza and Raymond Caguin from Starcom MediaVest Group in the Philippines, John Andrew Agbay from Universal McCann in the Philippines and S Hardik from Madison Media in India. They too achieved perfect scores but did not complete the test as fast as the overall winner. Each of the runners-up wins an Xbox 360. 

Although the winners have been announced, the DQ test will still be available online for users to assess themselves.
