イケてるシンガポール賞
I will propose a brand-new name for this award, if you are asked to give a more Japanese-like name. Since "クール" in Japanese also means coldness, I may suggest "イケてる" for "cool". It would be catchy and appealing, in particular, to younger generations.
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
