The A’ Design Award & Competition represents a global competition which is developed for the purpose of providing a fair, ethical yet competitive platform for organizations, inventors and designers from every diverse sector to challenge themselves.

Like the Olympics of the design world, the competition aggregates scores since 2010 and ranks all the countries based on the number of winning entries in a global index it proudly titles the World Design Rankings.

As of the latest standings, mega-economies China and United States of America wrestle for the top spot, while design powerhouses Japan, Italy and Great Britain steadfastly secured the remaining spots in the Top 5. Russia — 17; Ukraine — 34.

Judging is done via blind peer review, by a panel of leading members of the academia, press as well as established professionals from the specific industry who have been tasked with the role of being meticulous with the details of each entry.
