JUDGES
The Brand Impact Awards are judged by an expert panel from world-class agencies including Superunion, Taxi Studio and The Clearing, as well as branding experts who've worked client-side for top brands such as the BBC, Virgin, Barclays and British Heart Foundation. Judges are given three key criteria: firstly, a strong concept that’s appropriate for the client; secondly, beautiful and consistent execution across two or more touchpoints; and finally, branding that stands head and shoulders above the rest of its market sector.
Thank you to all the judges taking part in the Brand Impact Awards 2019.
