About Wolda
Wolda is the only award scheme in the world endorsed by over 100 other international design associations and schools.

Key to its success is the innovative three-tier jury (a first in the history of design competitions) consisting of 10 top design professionals, 10 marketing managers from major international clients and finally 10 members of the public, selected respectively by Icograda, AQUENT and CONSUMERS INTERNATIONAL. The selection process reflects the same real world process that any logo design must go through to become a successful logo.

Wolda '08 was made possible by its prestigious sponsors FONTEGRAFICA and SAPPI as well as the many design associations that have granted us their valuable endorsement (see the full list at www.wolda.org). Thanks also to our media partners 2+3D, abcDesign, ArabAd, Design 360°, DESIGN DUMP, DEXIGNER, DIGITAL THREAD, ÉTAPES: INTERNATIONAL, FWA, GRAFIK TASARIM, IDENTITY, IdN, KAK, NETDIVER, NOVUM, PACKAGE AND DESIGN, TAXI, TYPO AND ZUPI, who have been a great help in publicising Wolda around the world.
