Tentang BubuAwards

BubuAwards adalah acara tahunan yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan gairah di industri IT Indonesia dan untuk meningkatkan standar dalam dunia web dan online promotion, hal ini dikarenakan banyaknya situs-situs Indonesia yang kurang efektif dalam penggunaannya. Padahal media online ini adalah salah satu media masa depan yang sangat menjanjikan untuk promosi.

BubuAwards juga merupakan salah satu cara mengedukasi pemilik/pengelola situs web dan masyarakat umum mengenai situs web yang efektif dengan melakukan penilaian terhadap grafis dan tata letak, isi, kegunaan, dan teknologi. Untuk BubuAwards v.05, kompetisi dibagi menjadi kategori Corporate, Individual dan Student. Selain itu, BubuAwards membantu memperkenalkan bakat-bakat design di Indonesia kepada pihak nasional dan bahkan ke tingkat internasional.

BubuAwards v.05 didukung penuh oleh DEPKOMINFO dan ditabulasikan oleh Ernst&Young. Kompetisi Web ini juga merupakan afiliasi World Summit Awards di Indonesia—di mana World Summit Awards sendiri merupakan sebuah kontes global untuk memilih dan mempromosikan e-contents dan aplikasi terbaik di tingkat dunia yang didukung oleh UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development Organization), UNESCO, International Telecommunication Union dan United Nations Information and Communications Technologies Task Force.
