DesignEuropa 2023 call is open till 10 March 2023.
The DesignEuropa Awards celebrate excellence in design and design management among holders of Registered Community Designs (RCDs). Organised every two years by the EUIPO, the awards are divided into three categories:
- The Industry Award
- The Small and Emerging Companies Award
- The Lifetime Achievement Award
Applications for the Industry Award and the Small and Emerging Company Award
Applications can be submitted by the owners of the RCD themselves via the application form. RCDs entered for the competition must be marketed by the owner of the design or a design licensee. Applicants can submit up to five entries (one RCD per entry), provided that each RCD has been designed by a different designer or by a team of designers with at least one different member.
Nominations for the Industry Award and the Small and Emerging Company Award
Candidates for both categories can also be proposed by any person, entity or institution by submitting a nomination form.
Nominations for the Lifetime Achievement Award
The Lifetime Achievement Award celebrates the work and achievements of designers who have made significant contributions to their field over the course of a career. Entrants in this category may be proposed by any individual, entity or organisation by using the Nomination Form.
Nomination will be assessed by a jury made up of experts in business, design and intellectual property. Find out more about the DesignEuropa Awards categories here.
