Organized as a way to showcase excellent designers in all disciplines and from all countries, the A' Awards are peer-reviewed and anonymously judged by an influential jury panel of experienced scholars, important press members, and experienced professionals. The awards offer prestige, publicity and international recognition to A’ Design Award Laureates through the coveted A’ Design Prize system. You can learn more about the call for entries process here.

A’ Design Competition results are announced every year on April 15. The best products, projects, and services worldwide that demonstrate superior design, technology, and creativity are rewarded with the A' Design Award: the symbol of excellence in design and innovation. There are five different levels of distinction; Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze and Iron A’ Design Awards are distributed annually in all design disciplines. Designers, companies, and institutions from all countries are called to take part in the accolades each year by nominating their best works, projects, and products for award consideration. See more on the results announcement here.

Entries are judged by A' Design Award's jury of hundreds of experts from around the globe including scholars, professionals, and media members. Each jury member is required to sign a jury agreement and follow a code of conduct. In addition, jurors may not be employees of the participating companies to avoid conflicts of interest. This jury process has been designed to promote a more fair and equitable awards process, with no single juror exercising undue influence on the results of the awards. You can find out more about the jury and its process here.

The A' Design Award & Competition also has a network to reach millions of design-oriented audiences worldwide. A’ Design Awards winners have been seen directly at the A’ Design Award website over 80,000,000 times. They also have 97,274 users on their platform and 35,263 project submissions.
