We've added three new categories in AdNews Agency of the Year

Each year we look at our AdNews Agency of the Year Awards programme and look at how we can ensure it’s as relevant as it can be, that the categories reflect where the industry is going, and that we can continue to be the most credible and respected agency of the year programme in Australia.

We only like to add categories that we think move the programme forward, and reflect what deserves to be awarded. This year, we felt there were three categories that fitted the bill.

The AdNews Effectiveness Award, Media Campaign of the Year - small budget - to recognise work with a media spend under $250,000 and Best Use of Technology.

The AdNews Effectiveness Award is unique in that work is eligible over the past three years and it's designed to allow agencies and clients to show effectiveness and results over a longer period, and recognise longer-term strategies.

You can find all the information about these categories, and the others, in the Entry Kit and Guidelines. 

Join us to celebrate the best in the creative and media business at The AdNews Agency of the Year Awards. The 2017 awards are now open for entry.

We’d like to thank our major sponsor MCN and supporting sponsors Nova Entertainment, Facebook, Outdoor Media Association, Val Morgan, Adstream, NewsMediaWorks, founding People & Culture sponsor iknowho, and Royal Auto and Bluestar Web.

You can get all the information about categories and criteria here in the Entry Kit. Entries close on 19 January.

The Awards will be on 15 March 2018.
