Judging
The awards will be judged in two stages. The first stage is an online stage and entrants will be shortlisted on the basis of their application entry form submission and supporting documents. Finalists with a product based entry will be invited to send in a pre-prepared 4 minute video presentation where they can demonstrate their product to the judges.
The decision of the judges is final. The judges reserve the right to re-classify, re-categorise or reject any entry that does not comply with the requirements of the Bett Awards
Entries will only be judged on the basis of the information provided to the judges on the entry form and additional supporting material submitted
Judges are requested to declare an interest and remove themselves from the process if they are asked to judge an entry that poses a conflict of interest.
Confidentiality
We will respect as confidential any financial data submitted unless given express permission to use it. If there is a particular part or your entry that you would prefer not to be used then please clarify this on the entry.
All entries will be stored securely on our website and access to these by Judges will be strictly monitored.
By entering the Bett Awards, companies are authorising the organisers to use the data and certain visual materials submitted, for the purpose of the awards presentation.
