The Middle East Insurance Awards are judged by an international panel of independent experts. For each category entered, all criteria must be submitted in TRIPLICATE. Each copy must have a completed and signed entry form attached. After the submission deadline, these packages will be sent to judges all over the world. It is therefore important that all submitted information is presented concisely and clearly.

Step 1
Select a category
Review the award categories and their descriptions, and select which category/categories you would like to enter.

Step 2
Complete an entry form
Complete an awards entry form, which can be downloaded by clicking on the Enter Now link below.

Each award submission must be accompanied by a fully completed and signed entry form. Only entries submitted with this form will be accepted as valid entries.

Companies may enter as many categories as they wish, provided they meet the criteria outlined in the category descriptions.

Forms may be photocopied.

Step 3
Produce a statement of up to 1,000 words
Each entry must include a statement in hardcopy of up to 1,000 words outlining the reasons your company deserves the award.

The statement should be concise, and include examples of achievements relevant to the category. It may include bullet points or references to supporting material.

The judges will be looking for evidence of achieved targets, strategies, measuring instruments, survey results, customer satisfaction, policy take-up, and influence.

Step 4
Collate Supporting Material
Supporting material may be marketing brochures, training material, lists of clients or cooperating companies, testimonials, or financial results. It is especially useful for testimonial's to allude to successful communication of project goals to partner organisations.

Applicants are also encouraged to include copies of digital promotions on CD or DVD. Please ensure that these are submitted in TRIPLICATE.

Additional Considerations
Entries should be submitted in the spirit of transparency and it should be understood that any information contained in entries is placed in the public arena.
The joint decision of judges as collated by The Media Factory will be final and the views and deliberations of judges will remain private and confidential. Any petitioning of individual judges by entrants or requests for information from judges about their deliberations will be viewed unfavourably in the context of the awards in 2010 and in future years. Any such enquiries about the awards and the judging process should be directed to The Media Factory FZ-LLC
