Event Information
Organised every two years by the EUIPO, the Awards have two categories open for applications and nominations: Small and Emerging Companies and Industry. The Lifetime Achievement category is reserved for designers with a significant body of work, developed over the course of a career, who have had a significant impact on the design profession.
The 2021 DesignEuropa Awards are presented in collaboration with the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy and the Benelux Office for Intellectual Property. The DesignEuropa Awards ceremony will take place on 19 October 2021 in Eindhoven, coinciding with Dutch Design Week (16-24 October). The DesignEuropa Awards are now in their third edition, following a first Award ceremony in Milan, Italy in 2016, and a second one in Warsaw, Poland in 2018.
