There’s more to the UK Digital Experience Awards than winning. Yes, it’s nice to win. But it’s invaluable to have your work reviewed and assessed by an independent panel of expert judges. Their feedback and insights will empower you to take this project – and future projects – to the next level.

While you’re at it, why not apply to join our judging team? As a judge you’ll find out what’s new and successful for other professionals in your field. Here’s what one of our seasoned judges, Mark Evans, Marketing Director at Direct Line Group, had to say about his experience:
“I liked the fact that submissions were pre-submitted and then presented in person. As a format it allowed the judges to really interrogate the thinking and therefore, selfishly, to understand what had really driven the success of the winners. This meant that it was a good combination of inspiration and tangible brain-food.”
