The second round of the european statistics awards for nowcasting

Due to technical and administrative obstacles, the date of the announcement originally indicated as 20 October 2023 is postponed. Since we highly value all contributions, we wish to ensure that the evaluation of all submissions is thorough and that all procedures are completed in their entirety before we announce the final results and the winners of the awards. As this is the first-ever European statistics competition of its kind, these procedures take longer than originally anticipated.
