AWARDS FAQS
In housing is simply when a business hires people into a team rather than outsourcing the work to an agency or third party. In-housing is being rapidly adopted across many businesses, enabling greater agility, increased efficiency, and convenience.
We accept entries from any ‘inside’ creative teams. If the business, you are based within are not predominately selling creative services and your team are seen as a support function you qualify.
The individual teams can enter but there must not be any additional creative support from the parent agency. For instance, if a creative agency is placing core team members inside their client business on a short-term basis they would be disqualified as entering as an in-house creative team.

Selecting the right mix of judges is imperative to the fairness, integrity, and transparency of our judging process. We work hard to select a diverse team of judges with a range of knowledge and skills to provide our judging panel with a robust mix of expertise. All our Judges, therefore, hold a senior position and have experience, expertise and/or positive profile within the industry to participate in our judging process.
