If you are an executive who works for a consumer product manufacturer or retail organization and you are interested in reviewing some of the best in-store and digital activations while mingling with other like-minded executives, please join us as a Design of the Times judge.
 
As a Design of the Times judge, you'll be treated to:
  • Recognition for you and your company in marketing materials throughout the year.
  • Complimentary two-day conference package to the Path to Purchase Expo. (Includes up to eight seminar tickets.)
  • One complimentary ticket to the Design of the Times Awards Reception at the Path to Purchase Expo where the final winners will be announced.
  • Networking opportunities during all judging activities and gatherings.
 
Judging Takes Place in Two Phases
Round 1: Tuesday, July 11 8:00 am - 3:00 pm Eaglewood Resort, Itasca (Chicago), IL (Networking reception the evening of July 10)
During Round 1 judging, leading consumer product manufacturers and retailers will review several entries in various retail channels and then score each one according to how well it executes the 4C's of Effective In-Store Activation. These scores determine the finalist entries which will be judged for a second time during Round 2 judging.
 
Round 2: Tuesday 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm, Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, September 26, Rosemont (Chicago), IL (includes lunch)
During Round 2 judging, leading consumer product manufacturers and retailers will review actual entries that are set up and displayed in a store-like setting in the Design of the Times Gallery on the show floor of the Path to Purchase Expo. Only finalist winners are judged during Round 2, and from here the top scores determine the Platinum and Best of the Times honors.
