Visitors can vote for their favorite among the projects exhibited. Taking part in the OE-A Competition has several advantages and creates visibility for the participants. All projects will be displayed at the OE-A booth during LOPEC 2025. An international jury rates each project in a secret vote and one winner per category will be announced.
A special moment is when the winners receive their award during an official ceremony at LOPEC 2025. OE-A will organize a web seminar in April 2025 for all winners to present their products to the community. OE-A supports the run of the Competition with press and social media work.
