MUMBAI: The Promax&BDA Europe Awards 2004, celebrating the best promotion, marketing and design campaigns, were announced today at the Cavalieri Hilton Hotel in Rome.
At the awards, Promax&BDA Europe senior vice president and MD Carmen Alzner cited the organization's collaboration with i2i Technology on a new online judging initiative.
"This year, some 150 design and promotion experts were able to participate in the judging process, ensuring that each submission and every finalist was viewed and critiqued by a significant jury of industry peers," Alzner said. "Each of those judges joins me in congratulating the 2004 Promax&BDA Award winners for reaching new heights in effective creative expression and design."
At this year's Promax&BDA Europe, Alzner reported a big increase in winning entries from Spain and Germany, which showcased a great deal of creativity and ingenuity in the submitted campaigns.
