How passes are issued
A seat at the ceremony is part of the honour, not a product. Passes are generated for honoured companies against their verified profiles, so the room is made of the companies the results chose.
Issued, never sold
Passes go to honoured companies. There is no ticket to buy and no sponsorship tier that comes with one.
Generated against the verified profile
Each pass is created from the company’s claimed profile and sent to its verified contact email, so it can only reach the company it names.
Named and non-transferable
A pass carries the company, the guest’s name and a one-time code checked at the door.
Guests on request
Additional guest passes can be requested from the verified contact, subject to venue capacity.
