Stoic and prepared, the Vega statuettes exude the very essence of what it takes to be a frontrunner in a digital age. Crafted thoughtfully by the International Awards Associate (IAA), the statuette depicts the figure of a warrior, who’s postured upright with their shield up, ready to take on whatever comes their way.
The statuette’s face is undiscernible under their helmet, signifying how those who go further do not always do so to seek glory. The statuettes come in three versions, representing the three winning levels – Platinum, Gold, and Silver.
May these statuettes honor the vanguards of the digital space.
