Why Eventex Awards

Eventex Awards are the #1 global awards for events and experience marketing. That’s why global, as well as small local agencies, enter the awards year after year.
  • Commercial credibility

    Events and experience marketing is largely a trust-based industry. Winning or being shortlisted at Eventex gives event agencies, organizers, and brands a globally recognized third-party validation they can actively use to stand out in pitches and win clients.

  • Foothold in new markets

    The commercial credibility of winning applies all over the world. Eventex is a global seal of approval, meaning that an Eventex award gives you an edge when entering new markets where you compete with local incumbents.

  • Long-term brand asset

    Eventex recognition does not expire after one post. You can use it across multiple touchpoints, campaigns, year after year. Entering annually shifts perception for your brand from one good project to consistent excellence.

  • Budget-effective marketing

    The cost of entering Eventex Awards is relatively small compared to the benefits that come with participating and winning. When leveraged strategically, the awards pay off longer than your average marketing campaign, where expenses are more difficult to forecast and often skyrocket.

Holistic year-round PR

Winning an Eventex award is a comprehensive, 365-day PR engine that will supercharge your brand until at least the next awards edition, backed by support from the Eventex team at every stage.
The result is 360-degree PR power that you can leverage strategically to achieve maximum impact.
  1. The aftermath of winning

    After the applause dies down, you can use and reuse your Eventex Awards win across all your marketing and sales channels for months on end. Your win comes with a dedicated promo pack and a guide on how to best deploy each element.

  2. Rankings

    Winning further boosts the likelihood of being included in Eventex Awards’ annual index and powerlists, which supercharge your industry authority on both a company and individual executive level.

  3. Industry reports

    Eventex Awards regularly releases dedicated industry reports, showcasing creativity, winning entries, and events industry trends, allowing winners to contribute, which further increases their expert authority and helps them reach new audiences.

  4. Recognition on a live stage

    Your win now has a live stage. At Eventex Summit, taking place November 3–4, 2027 in Vienna, Eventex Awards winners get priority access and dedicated recognition programming. You’ll be in the same room as the people who create, commission, and shape the industry’s most remarkable work.

  5. A seat at the mic

    Winners are on our radar for The Eventex Podcast, a platform to share the real story behind the work in your own words.

How to leverage winning

Winning gives you the confidence — and the justification — to communicate premium or upgraded pricing. It supports higher retainers or project fees and strengthens negotiations in the case of pricing pressure.
  • Build a long-term marketing strategy

    Participating in Eventex Awards gives you immense marketing power. From a social media post to an interview of your CEO in a respected media publication, you can comfortably include and reuse recognition for at least 6 to 12 months. Winning at Eventex Awards also comes with a promo pack and a guide with tried and tested tips on how to make the most out of your win.

  • Include awards in sales enablement

    This is the most underestimated benefit of winning. It does not supercharge only your marketing team — it gives your sales team an edge too. You can use your win in pitch decks, RFP responses, partnership proposals, and sales presentations. Industry recognition reduces the perceived risk for your buyers, and that often matters more than the actual price of your services.

  • Justify premium pricing

    Winning gives you the confidence — and the justification — to communicate premium or upgraded pricing. It supports higher retainers or project fees and strengthens negotiations in the case of pricing pressure.
