Our rigour
Quality assurance is our utmost priority, with international standards built into every stage of the assessment process, including follow-up interviews, fact-checking, and meticulous examination by the National Advisory Panel. This ensures that winners are selected based on reliable and credible benchmarks that are internationally recognised.
Our questionnaire
The new format will offer all participants an enhanced user experience. The questionnaire can be completed in a few hours and can be saved and continued as required. It supports the uploading of supporting documentation.
National Advisory Panel
The NAP is made up of senior representatives from the business, academia, NGOs, regulatory and media sectors. The NAP provides qualitative perspectives on the shortlisted participants and the diversity of the NAP ensures that all stakeholder values are taken into consideration in the assessment process.
