The decision was made in consideration of the stakeholders' many activities, including the build-up to Steadfast’s and AIMS’ major conferences, at the start of the year.
“By moving the award closing date, judging process, and announcement function to August, we are better able to serve the needs of our sponsors and intermediaries,” said Sheila Baker, Gold Seal managing director. “It also provides more flexibility for the winner regarding development options in London as part of the prize.”
The applications from intermediaries who have already entered this year's competition will remain current for the award.
