Shortlist nominations European Affiliate Awards (jury categories)
Last week, we launched public voting on our individual Top 50 Affiliate Voices category. The days after, Linkedin exploded and our servers were creaking and squeaking with all the votes that kept pouring in. Today, we can also announce the shortlist nominees for the jury categories. We received a staggering number of cases, especially as it is our first ever edition. Thanks to everyone who took the effort to submit one or more cases, it has been a blast browsing through them.
How did the process look? The longlist is reduced to a shortlist, with (on average) 6 nominees per category. Because of a draw in the ‘best platform’ category, there are 7 shortlisted companies on that specific category. The ‘best technology’ only has 5 nominees, as there were less entries into the category.
During August, our jury members will (per category) get into contact with the nominees to get more info/details on the case. Afterwards, they will decide who gets the GOLD, SILVER and BRONZE awards. The winners will be announced during the live event in Amsterdam, September 15.
