This year there is a lot of innovation in contest. Organizing Committee has updated entry-form, entry rules & requirements and there are some changes in judging process. 

Innovation in Round One is that judges evaluate all elements of an entry - written case and creative materials to take a look more complex.

For the years Organizing Committee of Effie Awards received a lot of feedback from jury about data' proof   that provided by participants. Speaking with colleagues and Effie organizers from other countries it has become apparent that it is not Ukrainian specificity but a key aspect to determine «gold standards» of marketing effectiveness.

That why from this year Organizing Committee of Effie Awards Ukraine presents complementary process of data' proof in entry if judges have doubt about provided references for verifiable source. If data cannot be provided by entrant, entry will result in disqualification.
 
List of contest categories in 2015 remained unchanged in comparison with 2014 year.
