The World Festival Innovation Awards program is the largest worldwide awards competition for identifying and recognizing global innovation, where 1,000+ companies, organizations, and technology companies compete online for votes and with our panel of experts, all leading up to World Festival 2022 (August 3-4, 2022).
How it Works
The WorldFestival Innovation Awards are 100% online and virtual, which means that your award has an online page, you will be able to update that award page, you can invite your community to vote on your award page, and the WorldFestival judging committee will vote on your award page. Read the instructions below on how to update your online award page.
At the bottom of this page are the frequently asked questions (FAQ). If you contact our team, WorldFestival will do its best to get back to you within 48 hours, however we recommend that you read the FAQ since it may answer your questions.
