The Judges
The awards are judged every year by industry experts.
45 senior level decision makers will interview and deliberate to elect the Made in Manchester Awards 2022 winners.
One of the things that sets MiMA apart from other awards is the rigorous judging process. Each category has its own uniquely tailored set of questions. The judges in each category analyse each entry and draw up a shortlist. Our shortlisted are then interviewed individually and our judges come to a decision on each winner.
