AGBA Innovation Awards Form

A company may nominate multiple innovations in different categories. However, the same innovation cannot be submitted in multiple categories. A separate form is required for each nomination.
Past participants are welcome to apply in subsequent editions. All entries are judged on their own merits for the current awards cycle.
Categories may be combined or realigned at the discretion of AGBA and the jury.
Any changes to a submitted nomination must be requested within 15 days by emailing nominations@bellaward.com.

All innovations are reviewed and validated by an independent jury.
The evaluation consists of a live presentation on a virtual platform (e.g., Zoom) where you will present your innovation for 10 minutes, followed by a 10-minute Q&A session.
All jury presentations will be broadcast live on AGBA's official YouTube and LinkedIn channels. Participants who do not wish for their session to be live-streamed must inform the AGBA team via email before their presentation.
Nominations must be submitted in English. Videos in other languages are accepted if they include English subtitles. Translators are permitted during the jury presentation.
If the jury identifies false or misleading information, the nomination will be disqualified.
Jury feedback may be shared with participants upon request to help strengthen their innovation journey.

All nominations that pass the initial administrative screening will proceed to the jury evaluation.
Every participant will receive the AGBA Innovation Star Certification, ensuring all credible innovations are formally recognized.
The selection of winners and finalists for the Aegis Graham Bell Awards is entirely based on the independent judgment of the jury.
Submission of a nomination does not guarantee winning an award.

By submitting a nomination, participants agree that public-facing information (including details of the innovation, innovator, or presenter) may be used by AGBA for promotion across digital, print, and live media.
If any company wishes to refrain from having their innovation featured in social media or other media posts, they may request this via email to the AGBA team.
All participants must follow an ethical code of conduct throughout the process.

Once a nomination is submitted, participants must pay the applicable nomination processing fee based on the Company Turnover, plus 18% GST.
Payments can be made online (credit card) or via bank transfer, as specified in the Proforma Invoice.
Fees are non-refundable and are purely for administrative and processing purposes. They do not influence the jury's decision.
