Meet Your Jury

A list of esteemed industry experts have been carefully selected as jury members for the Gateway Awards to represent several facets of the industry and also to ensure a fair and balanced evaluation of all nominees.

Jury members rotate through a three-year service period, which guarantees a diverse and different jury each cycle with new points of view and experiences that reflect the broad expertise of the membership.

Jurors operate independently, applying the highest standards of evaluation and professional practice. All submissions will be assessed by
PwC India, our knowledge partner and process validator and the results are put up to the Jury for final deliberations and decision. Typically after a long day of deliberations, the final group of Gateway Awards for Excellence are selected.
