Last week, the third BW-NID Design Excellence Awards were presented in a nationally televised ceremony in New Delhi, India. BusinessWorld has listed the past award winners, categories and the jury in detail here, but this year's winners list is only accessible by subscription. Still, a little "injun"uity and a digital camera can achieve wonders :) The guest of honor was the British High Commissioner to India, Sir Michael Arthur.

As the print issue didn't have a categorized list of winners, here are some names from the captions under the photographs of the event.

Vishwas Morghare, for a wheelchair transporter, Plexus
Anuj Prasad, for best home retailing packaging for Vicks
Shantanu Jha, for best home product design for a portable music assistant
Satish Gokhale (seen above) for Continuous Excellence in Design for the third consecutive year, as well as best medical equipment and best industrial equipment.
Neil Foley, for best accessory design
Mukul Kulkarni, for best office furniture design
NID student Ayush Rajvanshi received a 6 month internship at Star News
Vinay Rao, Vivek Naik, for best design of transportation accessory

My apologies if I've overlooked anyone.
