Shortlisting Process

Our judges will comb through submissions after entries have closed, producing a shortlist of 50–60 entrants.

Entries will be evaluated on a combination of folio quality in addition to written responses pertaining to vision, motivation and creative perspective.

The shortlisted candidates will then be required to submit a short two- to three-minute video that will be used by the judging panel to help select the final 30UNDER30 cohort.

The final 30UNDER30 cohort will be invited to attend the creativity retreat, and receive 12–months’ mentorship, brand-building, career development and invitations to a series of Australian Design Review events and activations in collaboration with the program’s partners.
