The World Branding Awards is an international award presented to global and national brands for their work and achievements in branding.[1] The World Branding Forum, based in London, organises the awards.[2]

There are three tiers of awards. A Global Award is presented to international brands, a Regional Award is presented to brands that are the top in several countries in a particular geographic region, and a National Award is presented to brands from participating countries.[3] The awards trophy is on display at the Museum of Brands, Packaging & Advertising in London.[4] The award's Brand of the Year logo is a registered trademark.[5]

The 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 award ceremonies took place at Kensington Palace in London.[6][7][8]

In 2017, the first Animalis Edition, an award ceremony dedicated to pet and animal branding, was held in the Hofburg Palace in Vienna.[9] It is the world's largest animal and pet branding awards ceremony.[10] The second Animalis Edition was held at the same venue in 2019.[11]

In 2018, the Americas Edition of the awards, dedicated to the Americas and the Caribbean, was held at The Plaza on Fifth Avenue in New York City.[12]

Nominations, judging, and scoring

[edit]

Nominations for the awards can be made by brands' owners, custodians, agencies, or the public.[3] There are three tiers of awards: a Global Award is presented to international brands that have a presence in ten or more countries, on three or more continents, limited to the top 100 global brands in any particular year; a Regional Award is presented to brands that are the top in several countries in a particular geographic region; and a National Award, which is presented to the top brands in participating countries at the awards. Brands that are global winners are not awarded again on a national level.[3]

Winners of the awards are judged through three streams: brand valuation, consumer market research, and public online voting. There are also other awards for individuals voted for by the World Branding Forum Advisory Council.[1] Winners go through an assessment process to determine the level of work put in by a brand for their branding activities. The level of trust that the brands' customers and the public have for the brand is also taken into account.[13]

Trophy

The award trophies are made in Stratford-upon-Avon. The first trophies were manufactured in nickel and gold plate, and accented in acrylic with a design focus on the logo.[14] In 2016, a new gold-plated trophy was introduced for all winners. This is a solid trophy with no acrylic, and highlights the logo.[8] It is 245 mm (9.6 in) in height and 76 mm (3.0 in) in diameter with an angled top, and weighs 1.8 kg (4.0 lb).[15]
