The award nominations are open to companies with Nordic affiliations through ownership or an ongoing partnership with a Nordic company or membership with NordCham Philippines. The nomination is to be based on performance in 2021 only. Any person can nominate the company, however, it is usually a company representative, as the nomination form requires significant company information to be filled out accurately. Each category has different criteria.

PRELIMINARY SELECTION

Nomination forms are reviewed by the awards secretariat. All qualified submissions will be notified and prepared for the next phase of the evaluation process. Entries that do not meet the base criteria will be advised accordingly. The awards secretariat may schedule a Zoom or telephone interview with all qualified shortlisted candidates to gain first-hand information and a Q&A opportunity with nominees if deemed necessary.

JUDGING CONSENSUS

A comprehensive report containing the inputs gained from the submitted documents will be presented to the panel of judges for final selection. The awards are given at the sole discretion of the panel of judges.

WINNERS CONFIRMATION
