Young Professionals Application Day 2023

Start successfully to professional life

On the Young Professionals Application Day, all designers who have graduated within the past five years have 24 hours to take part in the lottery for 50 free registration places for the Red Dot Award: Product Design. The 50 upcoming talents selected will then submit their products for evaluation by the jury. If they win an award, they will have free access to extensive measures, which are included in the basic Winner Package, to communicate their success in the award visibly at an international level.

The application process for the Young Professionals Application Day is very simple: From midnight on that day, an application portal will open its doors for 24 hours. To register, graduates only need to provide a brief description and up to five images of the product as well as a scanned copy of their degree certificate.
