The competition promotes new, creative ideas and exceptional craftsmanship in applied arts. It encompasses all creative design fields in the crafts, including jewelry, ceramics, glass, wood, textiles, metal to stone, and silversmithing. A jury of experts awards the Danner-Preis, worth 20,000 euros, as well as four honorary prizes, also totaling 20,000 euros. Additionally, the jury selects exceptional pieces from around forty contestants to be displayed alongside the award-winning objects in a several-month-long exhibition.

A partnership with the Danner-Stiftung under the patronage of Hubert Aiwanger, Bavarian Minister of State for Economic Affairs, Regional Development, and Energy.
