Today is the last day to enter the AdNews Agency of the Year Awards

By AdNews | 18 January 2017
 

Today (Wedensday 18 January) is the last day you can enter the prestigious AdNews Agency of the Year Awards.

This year the entering process is completely digital. We think it will make it simpler and less time-consuming for you to enter. It will also make it a better process for the first round of judging.

You can access the online portal now and upload your entry and your assets. Check it out here.

There's also four new categories for 2016 which reflect how the industry is changing and what's important.

We know how important people and culture are to this industry, and while all our agency categories take culture into account we wanted to shine a spotlight on the people and culture making the industry great. The People and Culture Award is open to any agency, marketing team, media or ad tech company operating in the marketing communications industry Australia and will award workplaces that are investing in people, committing to diversity and driving a strong culture within their organisation.

We've seen more agencies and clients looking for bespoke solutions to their business needs in the last 12-18 months and so to celebrate innovations in agency business models our new In-House/Bespoke Agency of the Year category will celebrate those innovative approaches.

We also want to recognise the brand, and marketing team that has achieved the most this year with our new Brand of the Year category - this can be self nominated or entered by agency partners. It will recognise the performance of the brand, and the team.

Production houses are key to the craft of creative work so we're now recognising them with our Production Agency of the Year category.

Our Small Agency of the Year category is also evolving to recognise that small independent shops and small agencies that are part of bigger networks face different challenges and so we'll consider these separately.

Our presenting partner is realestate.com.au and Twitter is our engagement partner. Our supporting sponsors include Adshel, iknowho, Nova Entertainment, Snapchat, The Trade Desk, Think TV, Val Morgan. Associate sponsors are Adstream, BlueStarWeb and Royal Auto.
