Judging
This is a game of skill only. There is no element of chance in determining the winners. For judging criteria and categories please head to the ‘Important Information’ section of this page.
Prize conditions
Please be aware that the 2021 Brilliant Women in Digital Health is purely a recognition initiative where we will profile the 25 women who our judges determine as most successfully meeting the entry criteria. Therefore, there will be no monetary prize received.
Instead, the 25 women who are selected will be profiled in a report which we will publish to recognise them and to celebrate their achievements. All 25 women will also be invited to the supporting launch event which is due to take place in Sydney (date tbc due to current covid restrictions) and this event will also be live-streamed online, and in other Australian cities including Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane.
The 25 winners will be flown in to Sydney by Telstra Health (if they do not already reside in Sydney) and will be provided with one night’s hotel accommodation (again, for those who do not live in Sydney only). Any other reasonable travel expenses (as decided by us) will also be reimbursed if appropriate proof of purchase like a tax invoice or receipt is provided.
In the event of a COVID-19 lockdown, the event will be cancelled. However if a snap lockdown should happen on the day of the event, Telstra Health will cover all associated expenses including hotel quarantine if this should be necessary.
