With vetted judges, tough judging criteria, two-phase blind judging processes and strict bylaws limiting winners, only deserving entries receive recognition,” says Jocelyn Luciano, executive director for the Summit International Awards (SIA). “The creative work this year was outstanding. Watching the judges debate the details of individual entries in the run-off for the top spots was inspiring.”
