How did you find the application process overall?
The application process for the LG Week Awards was thorough but straightforward. It encouraged introspection and a comprehensive evaluation of the project, allowing us to articulate the objectives, execution, and outcomes effectively. The clear guidelines provided made the process manageable.

From start to finish, how long would you say it took to complete an Award application?
Completing the LG Week Award application involved gathering information, collating evidence, and reflecting on our projects' impact. From start to finish, it took approximately 5 days to ensure our application was comprehensive, reflective of our achievements, and aligned with the award criteria. This timeframe included internal discussions, drafting, and final revisions
