It is considered one of the most important awards given in Spain in the design sector.
It is organised every year by the Ministry of Science and Innovation, and the aim is to promote the culture of design in all its aspects. It also recognises the social and cultural impact of the activity. There are two categories: the Professional category, worth 30,000 euros, which values the contribution, dedication or career of teams and designers in any field (graphic design, product design or interior design); and Companies, which is an honorary prize for companies that are an example in the use of design for innovation.
