People: We celebrate the people elevating the creative industries and communities within it through collaboration, leadership, inclusivity, resilience, and vision.
Place: We celebrate the places strengthening Edinburgh’s rich cultural identity through the growth of a community, amplification of values and development of city spaces.
Projects: We celebrate projects making an impact on Edinburgh’s creative scene while demonstrating innovation, responsiveness, integrity, and boldness.
