With the successful conclusion of the final round of the judging process, stage is now set for the first edition of DIGIXX Awards on March 10, 2015. In a bid to set an industry precedent, the entire Jury process was moved to the online platform.

Havas Media Group’s Anita Nayyar and Sandip Tarkas of Future Group, who were part of the esteemed Jury panel for the final phase of judging, share their experiences as well as what they think about the completely digital process of judging. 

Anita Nayyar, CEO, Havas Media Group, India and South Asia:
“An online judging process, true to the digital environment and rightfully so. Good and diverse entries made the process interesting and unearthed the vastness of the digital domain.” 

Sandip Tarkas, Consultant, Future Group & Future Media, India:
“The process was transparent and the online site was easy to use. That made viewing the entries and scoring very easy, however, jury discussions are an important aspect that we missed and we must ensure that jury discussions do take place, even if on a conference call.”
