Once the deadline for participation has expired, the jury, made up of accredited professionals from the communications sector, will make a selection of the designs submitted, assessing their originality and creativity, and designating a shortlist of three candidates for the Organising Committee of the World Olive Oil Congress to choose the winner of the competition from among them.
