Following the success of its launch in 2025, we’re thrilled to announce the return of the CDW Awards - a groundbreaking programme celebrating the most innovative, visionary products and, new for 2026, the people shaping the future of design.
Presented in partnership with Design Milk, the CDW Awards offer a unique opportunity to elevate your work and recognise those who make it possible at one of the world’s most prestigious design festivals. Design Milk, a leading online magazine and media platform focused on modern design, is dedicated to discovering emerging talent, supporting independent and ethical design, and fostering an inclusive creative community.
The CDW Awards are open to all Clerkenwell Design Week participants with products newly launched in 2025 or scheduled for production between January and December 2026. This year, the programme expands with new people-focused categories, shining a spotlight on the individuals whose talent and leadership drive the industry forward.
