WHY JUDGE AGENCY OF THE YEAR?

"Judging is always a great opportunity to learn. You can learn from colleague judges about how to look at problems and assess agencies. Most importantly, you can also learn about the market, what’s out there, what agencies are doing, and the quality of their work."

Alessandra Bellini - 2023 Chair of Judges


NOMINATE A JUDGE


Judges are made up of brand chief marketing officers and brand marketing directors. Please ensure that your nomination is representative of one of these two job titles (or similar).​​​​​​ The final judging panel will be comprised of an inclusive range of individuals to fully represent the industry. Agencies are unfortunately not eligible to judge this scheme.

Evaluate and appreciate top industry talent

Being a judge allows CMOs to evaluate some of the top talent in the industry and getting to know these individuals and their work, enriches their perspective on what constitutes excellence in marketing and advertising.
