COMPRIX 2026 Launches with New “Health Design” Category

COMPRIX 2026 has officially kicked off – the call for entries is out, and the industry can look forward to an exciting competition year. As the most prestigious award for creative healthcare communication in the German-speaking market, COMPRIX once again invites agencies, companies, and institutions to put their best campaigns and ideas to the test

Submissions will be accepted exclusively online via award.comprix.com starting November 3, 2025. Early birds benefit: entries submitted by December 1, 2025 qualify for reduced fees. The final submission deadline is February 6, 2026.

A highlight this year is the brand-new competition category “Health Design”, which will be awarded for the first time in 2026. It covers five areas – Product & Packaging Design, Corporate Identity, Public Space & POS Design, Editorial Design, and a free category. With this addition, COMPRIX recognizes the increasing strategic importance of design in healthcare communication.

Alongside the new design category, the established competition fields such as Pharma Rx, OTC, Dental, Pharmacy Products, Veterinary Medicine, and Medical Devices remain open for submissions. Eligible projects include campaigns and communication measures published between 2024 and 2026 in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland.

All winners and finalists will be featured in the brand-new COMPRIX Magazine, which from 2026 will replace the traditional yearbook. The award ceremony will take place on June 12, 2026, in Cologne, where the best creative achievements in the healthcare sector will be celebrated.

By combining creativity, excellence, and visibility, COMPRIX continues to be the leading stage for healthcare communication in the German-speaking world.
