Josephine Buys, CEO of IAB SA, says, “We are thrilled with the response to the
IAB Bookmark Awards this year. Each entry tells a unique story of how digital can be used to achieve relevant, lasting results in multiple sectors.”
The IAB Bookmark Awards honours individuals, agencies, publishers and brands that have produced creative and innovative work that delivers tangible results. Jury President John Dixon, CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi BrandsRock, leads the multi-talented 2017 jury panel that will select the ultimate winners in each category.
The diverse teams of judges represent agencies, publishers, private companies, and niche businesses, which complement the refreshed list of entry categories. These include emerging technologies such as programmatic media, virtual reality, as well as the new
Pixel for Purpose Award, which recognises significant, positive social impact.
Buys adds, “A greater breadth of judging categories has been introduced in 2017. This list reflects the shifting disciplines and technologies within the digital industry. We look forward to recognising the pioneering work in these fields.”
The winners of the
IAB Bookmark Awards will be revealed at the
Bookmark Awards ceremony, which will take place on Thursday, 16 March from 19:00 at The Galleria, Sandton.
