Top 100 deadline extended

We’re happy to announce that the Design Week Top 100 deadline has been pushed back until Monday 10 July, so that you all have a chance to get your figures over.

The Design Week Top 100 provides a detailed and holistic analysis of the financial state of the design industry.

Our Top 100 ranks the 100 most successful independent UK design businesses, across all sectors based on total fee income, while also spotlighting, growth, turnover, projections and staffing levels.

The Top 100 provides an annual benchmark of the design industry’s financial performance, ranking UK design consultancies according to their fee-income.

Last year’s Top 100 survey saw returning consultancies boasting a 7% increase in fee-income. You can see 2016 results here.

Celebrate financial success

The Top 100 is a celebration of the design industry’s financial success, and we want to share your consultancy’s achievements.

All figures in the Design Week Top 100 will be independently audited by accountants Kingston Smith. In addition we will provide our own analysis of the results, which will be published in September.

Overall the Top 100 provides a wholly balanced and objective snapshot of the industry’s financial performance.

Enter now

The 2017 Top 100 will be based on design consultancies’ results from the financial year – April 2016-March 2017 – and the survey is open to all UK consultancies, including those with offices overseas.
