The W3 Awards honours creative excellence on the web, and recognises the creative and marketing professionals behind award winning sites, marketing programmes, and video work created for the web.
Winners of the W3 Award were selected from 3,000 entries received from advertising agencies, public relations firms, interactive agencies, in-house creative professionals, web designers and web enthusiasts.
The W3 is sanctioned and judged by the International Academy of the Visual Arts, an invitation-only body consisting of top-tier professionals from media, interactive, advertising and marketing firms.
“This is great encouragement for the INSEAD Knowledge team. In the past year, we have worked hard to further develop Knowledge, such as introducing the Chinese-language portal earlier this year, and we are working on the launch of an Arabic-language portal early 2010. We hope these portals will benefit an even larger group of readers who are always on the lookout for quality news and updates,’’ said Stuart Pallister, Managing Editor, INSEAD Knowledge.

About INSEAD, The Business School for the World
As one of the world’s leading and largest graduate business schools, INSEAD brings together people, cultures and ideas from around the world to change lives and transform organisations. This worldly perspective and cultural diversity are reflected in all aspects of our research and teaching.
With three campuses in Asia (Singapore), in Europe (France) in the Middle East (Abu Dhabi), and an office in New York, INSEAD extends the reach of its business education and research across three continents. Our 145 renowned faculty members from 36 countries inspire more than 1,000 degree participants in our MBA, Executive MBA and PhD programmes. In addition, more than 9,500 executives participate in INSEAD’s executive education programmes. With the INSEAD-Wharton Alliance, we deliver MBA and co-branded executive education programmes on Wharton's U.S. campuses in Philadelphia and San Francisco, as well as on our campuses in Asia and Europe.
This academic year is an important milestone for INSEAD as we celebrate half a century of success. Fifty years ago, INSEAD pioneered the concept of international business education – and we’re still innovating across all of our programmes, not to mention our cutting-edge research. The world and INSEAD have developed dramatically in the course of the last fifty years, but the core values on which INSEAD were founded have remained constant. These principles have enabled INSEAD’s entrepreneurial spirit to evolve and the school has grown into a truly global force.
Today’s organisations need leaders with the knowledge and sensitivity to operate anywhere in the world. This is why business turns to INSEAD – to develop the next generation of transcultural leaders. More information about INSEAD can be found at www.insead.edu.
