The Drum Awards for Digital Industries (formerly DADIs) reward the best and most effective work in the digital industries. Advertisers have more data at their disposal, more channels available and more tools to utilise, so it takes a exceptional team, campaign or platform to stand out from the crowd.

BT Code a Cake out of home

The shortlist for The Drum Awards for Digital Industries 2020 has been announced.

Open internationally to all agencies and brands, these awards seek to elevate the most effective, exciting and innovative digital work from around the world.

This year’s elite jury included senior figures from BBDO Asia, Publicis Poke, EE, BBC Creative and Deloitte Digital. Phil Jones, founder and organiser of Podge Events, returned to lend his expertise as chair of the judges.

In light of the ongoing global situation, The Drum Awards have moved online, and a virtual ceremony will take place on Friday 13 November. This will be part of The Digital Summit festival and free to attend. You can register via the festival website to be kept up to date.
