EuBea 2016: check out all categories and catch the Elephant!

Many novelties feature this year in the EuBea competition, starting from the event categories.

elephantEntrant agency will have the opportunity to enter their events and live communication projects in fourteen Event Categories and in four brand new Feature Categories. The first refer and apply to a classification of events by their production and objective peculiarities, while the latter can apply to any Event Category, but refer only to a specific aspect of the event.

Another important innovation is the possibility to enter a project also in one of the two Macro Categories –  Business Event and Consumer Event – once the project has already been entered in one of the Event or Feature Categories. Winners of these Awards will bring back home a Gold Elephant Trophy as a recognition for a highly stimulating challenge.
