The Publishing Prize is an annual award for films, websites, and newspapers, magazines, books and other printed products. The prize has been conferred annually since 1990 in about 30 categories. The prize is considered the most comprehensive communication contest.
Any company, organization, government agency, municipality, publisher, agency, consultant or individual can register films, websites, magazines, books, annual reports and other printed products with the competition. The jury is made up of active communication experts, such as copywriters, designers, journalists, editors, interaction designers, producers, and directors. The jury not only assesses design, but also gives points to typography, text content, visual content, reprographic quality, usability, cinematography, sound, and direction.
The jury first nominates three to five candidates in each category. The nominees are made public in August/September each year. The prizes are handed out at a ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden, in October/November. The winners receive a statuette and a certificate. All nominees receive a certificate.
The jury also awards the Publishing Prize Grand Prix to an outstanding nominee.
