Winner

Our Awards judges represent the very best of the profession and its ecosystem. All our judges generously give their time to scrutinise the entries across 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 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 volunteer their time to judge the awards without remuneration.

The composition of our judging panel changes annually, reflecting the ever-evolving nature of the industry itself. Our carefully 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.

The list of winners will be announced on 02 February 2026

Our Process

Judges are divided into panels based on their expertise to ensure any possible conflict is avoided.
All judges score the finalists based on the relevant category criteria.
Scores are then collected by the event team and collated.
Scores are sent to the judging coordinator, who checks and verifies all scores.
The highest-scoring entrant is declared the winner of that category.
