Every entry will be judged as per the criteria mentioned before and based on judges’ perceptions and experiences, as well as their expectations for each category. Entries are judged individually, not compared one to another and judges give their scores. Final scores are the result of the sum of all scores obtained from all judges in the category. Entries receiving scores between 90-100 points are GOLD Winners. Entries with 80-89 points are SILVER Winners. Entries scoring from 70-79 are BRONZE Winners.

The NORNS Judging Commission will also reward 1 (one) BUSINESS CATEGORY GRAND WINNER, which will be announced ONLY during the Awards Ceremony, and may or may not be present on the list of winners. The Judges, in their absolute discretion, shall select the Grand Winner giving 5 extra points to the best voted. The project that will get the biggest extra total will be announced as Grand Winner.

The Grand Winner is the entry with the highest number of points obtained by the jury.
