The Webby Awards is the leading international award honoring excellence in web design, creativity, usability and functionality. 

Established in 1996 during the web’s infancy, the Webbys are presented by The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences, a 500-member body of leading web experts, business figures, luminaries, visionaries and creative celebrities, including members such as musicians Beck and David Bowie, Internet inventor Vint Cerf, political columnist Arianna Huffington, Real Networks CEO Rob Glaser, “The Simpsons” creator Matt Groening, “Smart Mobs” author Howard Rheingold, Oracle chairman Larry Ellison, and The Body Shop president Anita Roddick.

Members also include writers and editors from publications such as The New York Times, Wired, Details, Fast Company, Elle, The Los Angeles Times, Vibe, and WallPaper.

The 9th Annual Webby Awards received entries from over 40 countries and generated over 100 million media impressions.

Reflecting the tremendous growth of the Internet as a tool for business and everyday lives, the 10th Annual Webby Awards expands the mission of the Webby by honouring excellence in over 65 consumer, business and culture categories.
