The 2025 judging panel brings together leading voices from across the sector — including Jon Vanstone (Industry Competence Committee), Nickie West (FIT Show), Chris Beedel (GGF), and Luke Wood (Glass Times). Entries are assessed through detailed scoring, debate and, in some cases, on-site verification visits to ensure transparency and credibility.

As the industry prepares to gather once again in London, anticipation is building — and all eyes are now on who will take home the trophies on the night of 28 November.
