Overview

The MPW Industry Awards have been created to recognise the best peer-reviewed Mass Participation events and initiatives in Asia. The intention is to grow the Awards to recognise events globally from 2020.

The awards are open to events that took place in Asia between 1 October 2018 and 30 September 2019 across running, cycling, triathlon, swimming, OCR, grassroots/team events and virtual events.

There are 12 categories including seven for overall events such as Best Running Event and five for key initiatives within events such as Best Sustainability and Best Partnership. Overall event winners will be judged on their embodiment of eight key elements including the likes of engagement, best practice and social impact.

The process was created with a number of key principles in mind:

  • Ensuring that the nomination process is simple and quick to ensure that key events are not excluded because they did not submit a nomination
  • Judging is done by the industry for the industry
  • The nomination process includes feedback from participants
  • The role of judging panels is kept to a minimum

The winners of each category will be recognised at an Award ceremony on Tuesday 3 December at the Hilton Singapore as part of the annual Mass Participation World Conference.
