What We Evaluate
Each submission is reviewed against five foundational criteria used across all Nova categories - adapted for Influencers & Infobusiness:
Professional Impact
Measured not by metrics alone, but by the depth of trust cultivated. We assess how your content informs decision-making, elevates standards, or shapes the behavior of audiences that matter.
Originality & Innovation
From business models to content ecosystems, we recognize formats and frameworks that rewrite the rulebook—whether through platform architecture, knowledge design, or thought leadership execution.
Reputational Merit
We examine your standing not through volume, but through voice. Are you a reference point within your niche? Do your peers look to your insights? Is your credibility cross-sectoral and enduring?
Scalability & Applicability
Is your methodology repeatable? Has it sparked movements, inspired new formats, or created templates others now rely on? Influence earns distinction when it becomes infrastructure.
Sectoral Relevance
Submissions should demonstrate alignment with the most pressing needs of today’s knowledge economy—be it trust-building in volatile markets, re-skilling at scale, or thought navigation in algorithmic environments.
Eligibility
Open to digital educators, content strategists, personal brands, and platforms shaping discourse, decisions, and learning at scale. Nominees should exhibit measurable influence, intellectual originality, and the ability to translate knowledge into meaningful industry or cultural outcomes.
