How much does it cost to enter? For 2021, the awards are free to enter.
Can I start my entry online and finish it at a later date? Yes you can. Our new nomination form allows submitters to save their entry and add to it at a later date. At the bottom of the form there will be an option to 'save and continue later'. You can access your entry again by logging into your profile with your email address and password. Remember to hit 'save and submit' when you are happy for the entry to be finalized and sent to the judges.
Can I amend my entry once I have clicked 'save and submit'? No, entries cannot be amended once they have been submitted for the judges review.
What supporting documents are allowed? We can accept most file types via the nomination form. The maximum upload size per file is 50MB.
There is no limit or word count for supporting documents, but please avoid including superfluous documents if they are not relevant to the entry. Remember it is quality and relevance that matter. Can I submit supporting documents that are written in my native language? No. We can only accept supporting documents written in English. How will my entry be judged? The judging process is made up of three simple phases: Phase 1: The IR Magazine editorial team reviews all submissions, selects finalists in each category and sends judges those submissions Phase 2: Judges review submissions for finalists individually Phase 3: Judges come together to discuss all finalist submissions and determine the winners in each category
The judges' comments will not be shared with entrants; however, judges' comments may be published in articles or reports after the event. The judges are not required to make comments against every submission.
Will my entry be shared with anyone else apart from the IR Magazine team and the judging panel? Information from your entry (including any files you upload) may be made public after the awards to substantiate your nomination. If you do not wish for your entry to be shared in this way then you should mark it as confidential. There will be an opportunity to do this in the entry form.
When will I know if my entry has made the short list? We will inform short-listed companies and individuals from late April by telephone and email.
I have a question that is not answered here. Who do I contact? You can contact Priscilla Lim, events manager, by email at priscilla.lim@irmagazine.com or call +44 20 8004 4989.
