Evaluation Criteria

The ten evaluation criteria listed below are valid for all four categories of the iF concept award.
The most important aspect in the iF concept award is the creative concept behind a submitted product. This means, we are first and foremost looking for great ideas. These ideas should be elaborated and presented in the best way possible. Another important point is whether the concept represents a solution to an existing problem and whether it is realistic and can be implemented.
In order to receive an iF concept award, a contribution must get above-average marks regarding several evaluation criteria and must clearly stand out in regard to at least one evaluation criterion. The better you score in as many criteria as possible, the greater your chance of receiving an award - and the higher the prize money might be.
