Who gets recognized at The Webbys? Big names, sure—like Internet phenomena like Gritty, actors like Issa Rae and Gillian Anderson, global brands like Spotify, and creative powerhouses like Weiden+Kennedy—but also brand-new startups and independent creators, too. You don’t have to be a household name to win a Webby. You just have to make amazing Internet.
2020 has changed so many aspects of our day-to-day lives, and our relationship with the Internet is no exception. Digital connections have taken on increased importance: They help us work remotely, keep in touch with loved ones, stay informed, and even find a little joy in the midst of extraordinary challenges. As we celebrate 25 years of The Webbys this season, we’re looking for the innovators who have helped make the Internet so essential this year—and who are shaping the digital world of tomorrow.
Sound like you? Then your work belongs at The Webby Awards. Every year, we honor projects from across the Internet and across the globe, representing all genres and media types. Now’s your chance to join over two decades of the Internet’s best.
But don’t delay: The Final Entry Deadline is coming up on Friday, Dec. 18th. Enter today at webbyawards.com!
