The A' Design Prize is one of the world's most comprehensive design award packages, containing an extensive array of PR, publicity, and marketing services to celebrate and promote design excellence. The distribution of this prize varies based on entry method: - For Pro-Edition laureates: The complete A' Design Prize, including all physical and digital components, is provided entirely free with no winner fees or additional costs. This comprehensive package includes the trophy, yearbook, exhibition opportunities, gala-night invitation, certificates, and extensive PR services. - For Digital-Edition laureates: Only the digital components of the A' Design Prize are provided, again completely free with no winner fees. This includes digital certificates, online promotion, and digital PR services. - For Vision-Edition laureates: Basic recognition is provided, and additional prize components can be requested on-demand. While there are no mandatory winner fees, specific services and benefits must be purchased separately if desired. - For Classic-Edition (Industry Standard) laureates: The prize package is not automatically provided unless winner fees are paid. These laureates must cover additional costs to access the benefits and services included in the A' Design Prize. This transparent, tiered system ensures that each participant clearly understands what benefits they'll receive based on their chosen entry method, maintaining both accessibility and value in the awards program.
