Every two years the DesignEuropa Awards celebrate excellence in design among European Union Registered Community Design (RCD) holders, whether they be individuals, small businesses or large enterprises.

Applications are now open for the 2018 DesignEuropa Awards. The competition is open to any person, entity or institution of any nationality, either individually or as a team, provided that they own a valid RCD that is also marketed and sold (in any country).

Rights holders do not need to nominate themselves, so you may nominate a holder of a European Community registered design who meets the required criteria.

Submissions close 15 May 2018. The ceremony will be held in November 2018, in Warsaw.
