Founded in Europe in 2010 by Jean-Christophe Chopin (architect of E-Trade Europe), The BORN Awards, which celebrate Creative Achievements across Multiple Categories of the Design-Led Lifestyle, have landed on American Shores for the First US-Based Regional Competition recognizing Work that strives to enhance People's Lives through Aesthetics and Functionality. All of the Winners, both Men and Women, Emerging and Established, have not only managed to invent something Beautiful, but have carried their Ideas and Visions to term ultimately seeing them become Part of, and contribute to, Society.
Operating in Six Countries, The BORN Awards have become the Premier Platform for honoring and empowering Cross-Creation offering Artists Online and Offline Exposure to some of the World's Most Influential Retailers, Brands and Industry Professionals. The Winners from Each Region, now including the U.S., are invited to exhibit their Creations during an Exclusive Exhibition at Milan Design Week each year and to participate in The BORN Conversations, an Exclusive Series of Fireside Chats held with renowned Thought-Leaders about the Intersection of Creativity and Business. Once all of the Regional Winners are selected, they will go on to compete against One Another in the Global Final held in London each year.
The Theme of the 2018 Competition is "Peerless," which aims to elevate Singular Creations that combine Functionality and Aesthetics in one of Six Categories : Architecture, Technology, Home, Leisure, Sport and Mobility. Additionally, The BORN Awards partnered with Two Industry Leaders to bestow Special Prizes - Tastemade, a Global Digital Food, Home and Travel Network will award the Best in "Food + Design," while Machinima, the Leading Gaming Platform, will select the Best in "Immersive Storytelling + Narrative Design In Gaming."
