Proof your business runs at a higher standard.
An evidence-based award for companies, teams, and products — scored blind against a published rubric by operators who've run them.
We don't sell recognition.
We certify it.
Every entry is judged blind against a published rubric by operators and former executives. Marketing spend, follower counts, and press releases are excluded from consideration. Evidence is not.
A result that holds up in a board pack, an RFP, or an investor deck.
Four criteria.
One rubric.
Every entry is scored independently against the same published rubric by practising operators and former executives, blind to marketing spend. Not every entrant is selected.
- 01
Evidence
Claims are backed by data we can read, not assertions.
- 02
Outcome
The measurable result achieved, and its scale.
- 03
Relevance
Performance judged relative to sector, size, and stage.
- 04
Verifiability
Sources and references we can independently check.
Enter for a flat fee.
Win, then choose.
$195 per category. $165 each for three or more. You're only billed once your entry is confirmed for judging — never at submission. Winner packages are optional and only apply if you win.
