11th Annual German StevieĀ® Awards Extended Final Entry Deadline Approaching
There's still time to submit nominations to the 11th annual German Stevie Awards before the extended final entry deadline, Tuesday, July 22.
There are no entry fees in this Stevie Awards program. Instead, a winner's fee is assessed for each Stevie-winning nomination. Participants may submit any number of nominations at no charge.
The German Stevie Awards offer organizations and individuals in Austria, Belgium, Germany, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and Switzerland (nations in which German is an official language) the opportunity to gain regional and global recognition for their achievements in a wide variety of categories.
Organizations of all sizes, public and private, for-profit and non-profit, and individuals from the business world, are invited to participate.
The 2025 program will again feature the People's Choice Stevie Awards for Favorite Companies. All winners in the Company of the Year categories will be included in this public vote. The top vote-getter in each industry category will win the crystal People's Choice Award.
The next free webinars in July, and August are designed to give women in the workplace an easy way to connect, learn, and growāno matter where you are in your career.
If you served as a Stevie Awards judge before we began issuing complimentary e-certificates in late 2024 and need verifiable proof of your participation, you can now purchase an official e-certificate through our Store.
A scan of its QR code will verify its authenticity. You can also print it out for display, and add it to your LinkedIn certifications.
Thank you for your invaluable contributions to the judging process!

Founded by former educator Louise Baigelman, Storyshares is a nonprofit literacy organization focused on adolescents who have slipped through the cracks of reading instruction.
Baigelman, who began her career in classrooms through Teach For America, saw firsthand how a lack of engaging, accessible reading materials held students back. Her solution: build a new kind of library.
That library now includes more than 500 original, age-appropriate titles written at a wide range of reading levels. These books have reached readers in 180 countries and have been read for over 1 million hours, helping teens and adults build confidence and fluency.
Educators report that more than 90% of students using Storyshares titles show improved reading attitudes and behaviors.
Storyshares Founder and CEO Louise Baigelman won a Bronze StevieĀ® Award for Best Female Entrepreneur ā Business Products ā10 or Less Employees in the 2024 Stevie Awards for Women in Business.
