Investment Week and its sister titles Professional Adviser and Professional Pensions are pleased to invite submissions to the Investment Marketing and Innovation Awards 2021.

After a year of unprecedented challenges in marketing and sales, these awards are designed to honor the marketing and content campaigns, as well as the individuals and teams who have persevered and achieved excellence in creativity, innovation and customer loyalty.

With several new categories in 2021, this year’s awards will cover marketing as well as offering development, content marketing and thought leadership, and direct and digital marketing.

In particular, they focus on identifying campaigns and teams that had the courage to try something new during the pandemic and build their brand in other ways.

For the first time in our new Lockdown Legend category, we’ll explore individual assets in categories like Best Use of Video and Best Blog, highlighting those people who really inspired others during a difficult year.

Entries will be judged by a jury of marketing, content and investment experts from across the industry. The awards are open to companies and individuals who work in retail, asset and asset management, and the institutional sector.

Whether you are a global company, marketing agency, or someone who has achieved truly successful marketing innovations, we want to hear from you.

The deadline for nominations for the individual categories is Friday, March 19th, while the deadline for the company, team and project categories is Friday, April 23rd. Click here to enter and learn more.
