Application deadline for Xaver Awards is running

 The online entry portal for the Xaver Awards has recently been opened. In response to many requests from interested participants, who are currently under increased Advent and year-end pressure, the Xaver organizing committee has decided to extend the deadline for entries until 20 January 2008. The Xaver Award, which has honored outstanding achievements in Swiss live communication since 1999, is now returning as The Swiss Live Communication Award. In addition to the new name, the content of the award has also been changed. Three new categories have been added to the previous Best Expo and Best Event categories: Best Live Communication Campaign, Best Promotion and Best Supplier. The judging criteria will now be evaluated by the jury in two rounds - in a first step, general criteria such as initial situation, objectives or implementation control will be assessed. In the event of a nomination, criteria such as material mix, functionality, creativity or originality are then added. The contemporary criterion of climate protection will also be assessed.
The Xaver.08 award ceremony will take place on April 9 at the Kaufleuten in Zurich.
