Speaking of the awards, The Drum Network’s MD Richard Draycott, said: “This is a great opportunity for ambitious agencies to get themselves in front of some great brands and show them just what they are capable of. We took the decision to move the awards to London after running them for the last five years in Manchester to give all of our winners the opportunity to shine on a national stage and to really boost their profile.
“I’m delighted at the calibre of the judges we have on board and I’m sure that competition will be fierce come the judging day, which is being held at the offices of Iris in London on Thursday 9th October.”
The deadline for entry to the Drum Network Awards is Thursday 11th September. For full details please visit The Drum Network Awards website.
