Everyone knows media, marketing and advertising is being changed by technology. It’s one of the most exciting aspects of the industry. Now you can enter The Best Use of Technology in the AdNews Agency of the Year Awards.
The new category has been introduced to showcase the ways technology is being used across the industry. It could be technology being used by brands as part of their marketing activity, or technology used by agencies to deliver a service - the list is endless.
As with all our categories, the entry must demonstrate how the technology used delivered on objectives and delivered results.
The criteria says: “This award looks to celebrate the use of technology within an organisation, campaign or brand execution. It is open to any initiative, original campaign or strategy that has technology at the core of the idea, execution or message. It can include, but is not limited to, a proprietary technology developed by the entrant and partners, use of an existing technology to drive results, an innovative application of an existing technology or a campaign that encouraged use of a specific technology for the benefit of the entrant’s objectives.”
