Online Process

The increasing number, quality and worldwide representation of the entries received each year are a testament to the growth and continued success of ISES and the ISES Esprit Awards program.  This year, in keeping with ISES’ original vision of the awards, a more efficient, cost-effective and earth-friendly version of the ISES Esprit Awards program debuts.

The 2010 ISES Esprit Awards competition will be conducted in a completely electronic format.  No more binders, printing, cutting, and gluing photos; this new online process is streamlined to recognize outstanding achievement and vision in the special events industry, to help develop global visibility and recognition and acknowledge commitment to the profession.  This year's competition is open to events that took place between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009. Events that were conducted after December 31, 2009 may be entered in next year's competition.

For entry assistance, please review the Rules and Submission Instructions.
