Back by popular demand
This year, we have kept all 24 award categories from 2026, which include classics such as Best B2B and Consumer campaigns, plus newer categories such as Best Use of AI and Best Podcast. New for 2027, the Best Student category is now FREE to enter. From innovative campaigns to individual achievements and awards for organisations, there’s a place for every standout contribution to be recognised.
Gold and Silver awards will be presented in every category.
PR industry sponsorship opportunities
With the introduction of some new categories and a refresh of the much-loved older ones, comes a unique opportunity to align your brand with the Midlands CIPR community.
Our tailored sponsorship packages offer businesses that support and sell into the PR sector an unrivalled platform to get in front of the key agency and in-house decision makers in the region.
