Expert Categories
Welcome to the Jury Scoring of the
2023 International V-Label Awards!
Please read the instructions below before you begin scoring.
Overview
- In its third edition, we received 317 entries by 136 brands from 30 countries in total. 237 of these entries were submitted in the expert-judged categories of Sustainability, Innovation, or Marketing & Branding, and 83 were submitted for the Consumers’ Choice Award, which will be which will be open for public voting until the 30th of September, 2013.
- The entries include both food products and beverages, as well as some cosmetic and other non-food products.
- All entries have been carefully reviewed and objectively evaluated through binary questions to create a shortlist of 15 entries for each of the categories. In some cases, multiple products from the same brand have been combined into one entry for clarity and easier scoring.
- Depending on your field of expertise and/or previous discussion with Nikolett, you will evaluate the 15 top entries from one of the categories.
Scoring Guidelines
- Once you enter your Jury Dashboard, you will see the 15 assigned entries, and you can swipe between them using the arrows on the sides of the page.
- For each entry, you will see the submitted images, information, and detailed answers to open ended questions. Your role will be to read through these answers, and score them on a scale of 1 to 10 – 1 being the worst and 10 being the best – depending on how well you think the respective entry is meeting the criteria of the question and the category overall.
- Before moving on to the next entry, make sure you click ‘Submit Scores’ at the bottom of the page to submit your scores. You may return to these later and update your scores if you wish by re-submitting – we will only consider the latest submission.
- When you are done with your scoring, please let Nikolett know.
- Please keep in mind that many, many entrants are non-native English speakers, therefore grammatical errors may be present in the entries. We’d like to ask you to score the answers based on their content, rather than how linguistically/grammatically correct they are.
When evaluating the answers, please keep in mind the overall goal of the categories:
- Sustainability: This category is designed to honor plant-based products that go above and beyond in minimizing their environmental footprint and promoting sustainable practices.
- Innovation: In this category, we celebrate the groundbreaking advancements and creative solutions that are shaping the future of vegan products.
- Marketing & Branding: This category is intended to celebrate excellent marketing and branding efforts, which are essential for making veganism more accessible and appealing to a wider audience.
