“Eventex Awards 2019 is a record-breaker. We’ve got an unprecedented number of entries from almost any part of the world this year. All of them are truly remarkable events, brands or suppliers that set the new benchmarks and trends in the events world. It’s a pleasure and honour to gather such amount of creativity in one place and be able to recognise the best of the best” comments Ovanes Ovanessian, co-founder of Eventex Awards.

Eventex Awards is famous for its complete transparency, stellar jury and innovation at every step. The 50+ judges are cherry-picked top influencers and thought leaders from the industry. The management of submissions and voting is done through the innovative Awards Management Software – Evalato that ensures easy application and a fair and uninfluenced judging process. Once the winners are announced, every entry, vote and comment is made public online. The People’s Choice category is decided by public voting. This year, the record number of 4747 people voted to select the top three in this category.
