ELIGIBLITY RULES:
HOW ARE THE EX AWARDS JUDGED?
An Ex Award winner plus a Gold and Silver finalist will be awarded in each category.
A panel of senior-level brand-side event marketing experts judge all categories, including the Grand Ex Award.
Judges will look for evidence of campaigns that demonstrate the following:
- Clear strategic thinking
- Innovation
- Effectiveness
Winners will have succeeded in reaching out and "touching" the hearts and minds of the target audience. Results must be supported, and judges will also consider efficient use of budgets and supporting promotional tactics as part of their judging criteria. (Note: The size of the budget doesn't matter-just how the dollars are used.) |
- The Ex Awards are open to marketers, agencies, suppliers, and manufacturers involved in the event, trade show, sponsorship, mobile, hospitality, production, nightlife, retail, meeting, and field-marketing arenas.
- B-to-C and B-to-B events and campaigns are eligible.
- Campaigns must have launched or debuted between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009.
