Frequently asked questions
-
-
Are the Markies awarded to individuals or organizations?
The Markies are typically submitted by individuals, but celebrate the achievements of their organizations, not individual accomplishments.
-
What organizations are eligible for the awards?
Candidates (customers or partners, if participating as end users) may self-nominate or be nominated by other parties (customers, partners, or Oracle employees). Review the program rules (PDF) for details.
-
Are the Markies global?
Yes, with very few exceptions. Review the program rules (PDF) for any current restrictions.
-
How many winners will be chosen?
Up to five finalists will be selected for each category, with one of those finalists selected as the winner.
-
What recognition do the finalists and winner receive?
Finalists and winners are recognized on the Oracle Markies Awards web page and are celebrated via various social communications activities. Winners are also presented with a trophy in recognition of their achievement. Depending on current conditions, the announcement of finalists and winners may take place during a virtual event or at a live, in-person event.
-
Can I enter in more than one category?
Absolutely. However, each organization may only submit one nomination per category. If nominations are submitted by one organization for additional categories, each nomination must be materially different than any others submitted.
-
Can I enter a campaign or a project that started two years ago?
Entries must be associated with campaigns or projects that were executed (and benefits achieved) between June 2022 and May 2023.

-
What makes a winning entry?
Study the rules (PDF) and description for each category (link to Categories tab) to ensure you are submitting a nomination for the most appropriate award. In terms of quality, our judges get excited about entries that demonstrate robust, measurable results. The strongest contenders call out specific metrics and include charts, graphs, and other visuals to illustrate performance. Keep in mind that we prefer substance over size. Distilling the most important facts about your campaign into a concise entry makes your story much more compelling. And, finally, make sure that your responses to all questions within your submission are complete and easy for our judges to understand.
