Six Steps
Deadline for Entries
Thursday, July 22nd, by Noon (Eastern Standard Time)

How to Enter
You have to submit a rigorous written case, with supporting advertising materials. There are six main steps. They are simple in themselves, but you need to read them all:
| Step 1: | Registering Online |
| Step 2: | Selecting Case & Category |
| Step 3: | Getting Buy-In & Approval |
| Step 4: | Writing the Case |
| Step 5: | Getting Materials Ready for Submission |
| Step 6: | Submission/Fees |
Entries have to come from a “client/agency” team (the agency can be in-house) but you do not have to be a member of any of the industry associations.
Judges award three levels of prizes: Gold, Silver and Bronze. They will also decide on a Grand Prix Best of Show. There can be multiple prizes, including more than one Gold, in a category. Conversely, there may be some categories with no winners. The decision of the judges is final. No correspondence will be entered into.
Gold winner will be expected to prepare a two-minute case video based on a brief provided by the ICA.
