Finalists

Our Awards judges represent the very best of the profession and its ecosystem. All our judges generously give their time to scrutinise the entries through a three-stage process.

We appoint an independent panel of judges each year, comprised of accredited professionals. The panel is carefully selected through a fair and objective selection process and includes experts from across the profession. The judges are bound by a strict confidentiality agreement and are required to declare any conflict of interest in entries over which they deliberate and to stand aside from deliberations concerning those entries. Judges give their time voluntarily to judge the awards.

The composition of our judging panel changes annually, reflecting the ever-evolving nature of the industry itself. Our closely vetted panel comes together on the annual judging day for lively debates on our hotly contested categories, ensuring each entry is assessed against our strict criteria and high standards.
