The excitement level remained high for the shortlisted winners as they only found out the main winners in each category on the evening of the reception.

31 design professionals joined Indigo’s jury board to evaluate submitted entries based on their functionality, creativity and design quality. Members of the jury had to consider both design and country-specific characteristics of the entries, which made an international panel of professionals vital for the evaluation process. Design luminaries like Nina Geometrieva, product designer at Google, Pip Jamieson, founder of the Dots, Christopher Bettig, creative director at YouTube and Jeremy Vickery, senior lighting artist at Sony Bend Studio have enriched the jury board with their expert knowledge.

With entrants from over 40 countries, this year's inaugural Indigo Design Award reflects the best and brightest in global creative talent. All the winners have one thing in common; they reflect the current status of digital design and provide some key insights into the future of design trends. The award-winning products feature a combination of forward-thinking design with practical solutions for the target audience.
