An additional nine new agencies entered submissions, spanning the specialisms of Experiential, Promotional, Creative, PR, Media, and Digital.

David Lo, Chairman of The Australasian Promotional Marketing Association (APMA), said: “It is fantastic to see such a growing and diverse range of agencies adding to the mix of entries. Our industry is becoming increasingly connected and collaborative in the work we do. Each specialism brings a new approach and way of thinking about promotional and experiential work – I look forward to seeing the level of diversity showcased at this year’s awards.”

Winners will be announced on Thursday 7th August at an awards presentation at the Shangri-La Ballroom, Sydney.
