The 23rd edition of INTERNETICS gathered 145 works submitted by 28 agencies and companies, all of them dedicated to 56 brands.
The judging process involves the collective efforts of 90 experts in digital marketing and online communication, as well as a panel of research and media experts, independent consultants, and representatives from online consultancy boutiques in Romania. Company representatives come from a diverse mix of industries, including retail, telecom, FMCG, e-commerce, financial services, technology & apps, real estate, and more.
Judging will be held in two judging rounds, in October - November 2023. For the first round, judges will be split into teams and each team will receive a set of sections to judge, with an approximate equal number of works to evaluate. The judging in Round One is individual. Based on the grades from Round One, a team of Jury Moderators will set the threshold for Round Two. All entries that go within the threshold will become Internetics 2023 Nominees. For Round Two, three judging days will set the winners of the Internetics 2023 competition, in a set of discussions led by the Internetics Moderators.
