The judging panel is chosen yearly from some of the top professionals, thought leaders and industry influencers in the digital world. Every judge is assigned to a group of categories, in accordance with their field of expertise. Additionally, they do not get to vote in a category if they have an affiliation with any of the entries in it. Each entry is evaluated by multiple judges.

Your entry will be judged by some of the brightest and most experienced business leaders. Entries are judged in two phases. The highest scoring cases from Round One will go to the Final Round. In both rounds, all elements of an entry – written case and creative elements – are judged. Scoring is done anonymously and confidentially. Judges are asked to evaluate specific criteria in scoring a marketing case’s overall effectiveness and provide criteria specific cores analysing specific attributes of the work. The judges’ scores determine which entries will be finalists and which finalists are awarded. The finalist level and each winning level has a minimum score required to be eligible for finalist status or for an award. dra Trophies are awarded at the discretion of the judges. It is possible that a category may produce one or multiple winners of any level or perhaps no winners at all – no matter the number of finalists. Not all finalists become winners. Judges read your written case and then watch your video/ supporting document. Make sure your team reviews together to ensure they work seamlessly together before submitting your entry. Do not include:

Competitive work or logos

Agency names, logos or images

Any stock music/images that did not run in the original creative that you do not have the rights to include.
