We would like to express our thanks to our incredible judges and our Awards Chair, Brian Hayward and the Board for their support for this year’s Product Awards. We couldn’t do this without you. Judging takes place across three rounds in October and November with the results announced on 1st December 2023, at our industry lunch at St Pancras Renaissance Hotel. 

Our Judges are gathered from senior professionals in our industry and we are also joined by senior associates in other industry bodies, professional organisations and the BPMA Board.
