Judges

The NCE Awards have a rigorous judging process to ensure independence and provide clarity on the winner. Our independent panel of judges is made up of major clients and industry figures, who read entries to create the shortlist and review to select the winners.

Our 2025 Judging panel will be announced soon.

Judging Process

To get in front of the judges make sure you enter today.

Each category has its own independent panel of judges, made up of major clients and industry figures, who review entries to determine the shortlist and conduct live presentations, to select the winners for that category.  

Each stage is designed to provide a fair and transparent process. Please note if you are chosen as a finalist by our judges you will need to present to our judging panel. The final dates per category will be published soon.

Stage 1:  Online Judging – once the entry phase closes, the judges will review online and score each submission to determine the shortlist.

Stage 2:  Live Presentations – once the shortlist is announced, all finalists will be invited to give a presentation to our judging panel. This will take place from 30 April – 9 May 2025 at our central London office:
