Judging Process
The judging panel will consist of industry editors/analysts, builders and academics. Care will be given to create a representative mix of product/service experience, large and small company and geographic representation. The total number of judges will be five.
Selection of winners will be done by expert judging panels immediately following the deadline and will be based upon the criteria specified in the entry process. Announcement of the winners will take place during a special reception in San Francisco during PCBC on Wednesday, June 25, 2008. Winners will include best overall products for the IT and home technology categories.
In order to avoid any panel tampering or solicitation, judge names will be kept confidential until show time. Judges are instructed not to contact program participants during the course of the judging process. If its necessary for judges to interview entrants, the conversations will be monitored.
