The awards celebrate innovation and creativity
The Stationers’ Company is calling for entries to its 2018 Innovation Excellence Awards, which celebrate the contribution of the UK communications and content industries to the UK economy.
Companies, trade associations, charities, individuals, educational institutions and public bodies, including museums, libraries, galleries and archives are invited to share their examples of innovation and creativity in fields such as: digital publishing, book and magazine publishing, paper and other printing media, printing supplies (including inks and coatings) and office supplies, printing machinery and printing techniques, packaging, computer software, applications and games. Also of interest are novel methods of communication, marketing, advertising and publishing – including within the broadcasting, print media and digital sectors – and products or services that streamline trade in the communications and content sectors.
Entries will be evaluated on the novelty of the innovation, their economic performance or economic potential, and overall social impact within the UK.
Entry forms can be downloaded at stationers.org/iea and the closing date for completed applications to be emailed to communications@stationers.org is by 6pm on 6 April 2018.
Chairman Jonathan Drori said, ‘Innovation is a key driver of prosperity and growth, helping both for-profit and not-for-profit organisations to be more competitive. Launched in 2014, these annual Awards, which are free to enter, not only celebrate the creativity and drive in the UK Communications and Content Industries, but also give valuable publicity to the entrants’ achievements.’
Winners will be announced at an awards luncheon and exhibition of selected entries at Stationers’ Hall, London, on 26 June 2018.
