The main component of your entry is the entry document. All key information listed in the criteria for the category needs to be in the entry document and not in the supporting material.
You will be required to upload images and other supporting documentation as detailed on each entry form before you will be able to complete your entry.
It is recommended that you include before and after images for project based categories and label them clearly in your file names.
There are other documents you may be required to upload such as testimonials, proof of budget completion (for those under a defined value) and product or people images for other categories.
Please refer to the entry form for details.
- Projects may be entered in more than one category but separate submissions must be made as category judging criteria may vary.
- Judges reserve the right to change the category of entry if they deem it more relevant to the entry submitted.
- Sponsors may not enter the category that they are sponsoring.
- All entries must complete the entry template provided.
- Projects must have been completed during the period from 1 May 2022 to 1 November 2023.
- Any access passwords or details required as part of entry judging must be clearly supplied in time for the close of call for entries.
- Supporting material and/or the entered product can be provided as part of the entry, though this is not automatically returned.
- MA Business holds no responsibility for the loss or damage to any entry or supporting material for that entry.
Top tips on entering:
- If relevant, include the budget you had for the project – this allows judges to fairly assess context and compare and contrast entries
- Be clear on the context in which your design team or nominee is working – what are the unique challenges of your sector and organisation? Remember the judges may not be aware of the ins and outs of working in your specific industry, so help them out by making this clear
- Have a clear narrative which tells a compelling story and demonstrates a defined goal
- Remember that with market specific product innovations, you must be able to show the impact of the design/product on that market
Good Luck!
