DISCLAIMER
The costs were updated by 2010 prices, and they might not reflect the exact real costs; for example the frame for the certificate costed 5.03 €, the prweb distribution costs $369 (was converted to 280.00€ etc) and we cannot calculate all costs such as going and picking up the frames, the exact number of minutes required to fit items into frames etc, and also it is possible that the prices might have increased. The prices and costs given are for reference only, so that a participant could have an idea about on average how much a winner costs to A' Design Awards. The numbers are rounded. It is impossible to calculate all the costs and we have included overheads as estimates. **We would like to remind that the winners package is distributed free at the Gala Night and Exhibition, in any case we did not count it in our calculations as Winners' Package is ordered on demand by winners who did not participate in Gala-Night or Exhibition. We also distributed our general overhead costs to these figures, this includes the expenses of staff, the office, and many others. In addition, to calculate the cost of some of the inhouse provided services, we have used instead figures by third-parties, i.e. how much would it cost if we would be procuring these services from others. Please note that these costs cannot be claimed in terms of money in any way. The costs to be incurred by A' Design Award cannot be exchanged by monetary awards. A' Award is not liable to spend these costs to winners, A' Award could spend more or less, depending on the circumsatances ranging from finances to market conditions. Please once again note that not all projects are translated to all languages; Platinum and Gold works translated up to 34+ Languages, Silver, Bronze and A' Winner works are translated into 5+ Languages by native translators. *** Costs indicated in this page refer to professional edition, the digital edition has lower costs and the entry fee for the digital edition is also relatively lower.
