Judges And Judging Process
World class scrutiny for world class innovation: meet the industry experts judging your work…
The Sports Technology Awards are serious about honest, authentic and authoritative scrutiny and this is reflected both by the outstanding profile of our expert judging panel and the process by which all entries are judged.
Judging is completed online, independently of and without reference to any other score; each judge marks every element of the entry form, then submits a total score for each shortlisted entry. In the case of a tie, more judges from the industry are asked to evaluate the tied entries until a clear winner is determined.
Remember, our judges are unquestionably some of the most informed people in the sector and the judging process means that all their points of view are accounted for fairly. They are totally unbiased in their voting and are committed to working to seeing excellence – not a brand’s size or budget – win.
We ensure organizations of all sizes enjoy fair representation and opportunities at the Awards, and are proud that The Sports Technology Awards is one of the few industry events where a bootstrap start-up can achieve victory over an established, international sports brand. Ultimately excellence is what counts!
