We have also introduced a new state-of-the-art awards submission system that allows entrants to make their submissions quickly and easily.
The judging period runs from April 1 2019 to March 31 2020 and entrants should focus on innovation, mandate wins and performance in that period. We accept entries submitted by third parties, such as PR firms, on behalf of their clients.
The deadline for submissions is August 1, at which time the entries will be organised into a short list and sent out to our panel of judges comprising industry experts from the relevant sectors.
The winners will be announced at our gala awards dinner, which will take place later in the year at a date to be confirmed shortly.
