The judging process

The B2B Marketing Elevation Awards have a rigorous, two-stage judging process led by a team of independent, external judges who bring a diverse range of in-depth marketing expertise to the procedure.

Stage 1

Once entries have closed, all the 2023 submissions are reviewed online by our panel of first round judges, which is made up of senior, client side marketers. Using our confidential online judging platform, entries are scored, and the top performing submissions are put forward to the shortlist.

Stage 2

In mid-April, we bring together a second panel of judges, made up of independent client-side marketers and industry experts, who meet in-person for the judging day. Together they review and score each of the submissions on the shortlist. The process is held behind closed doors with only the judges in attendance to ensure confidentiality and that only the true winners are selected.
