The deadline for the 2024 World Media Awards (WMAs) has been extended by two weeks to Thursday 26th September. The awards, created by the World Media Group and now in their ninth year, recognise the very best in international advertising and content marketing campaigns. The World Media is pleased to announce that Brand Metrics will be the official partner of the World Media Awards this year, providing support at the WMA Judges’ Day and at the official Awards ceremony.
“We are delighted to have Brand Metrics as the official partner of the World Media Awards this year,” said Jamie Credland, CEO World Media Group.”Their commitment to supporting the best in international media campaigns aligns perfectly with their commitment to provide accurate measurement for brands on the difference these campaigns make. The World Media Group is all about demonstrating the value and impact that trusted media environments create for advertisers, and Brand Metrics is a fantastic partner in that mission.
Sean Adams, Chief Marketing Officer at Brand Metrics reiterates “Our mission is to help demonstrate the positive impact that advertising within premium publisher environments has on brands. We are therefore big supporters of the World Media Group and the many proactive initiatives they run to champion the advantages that their publishers offer to both audiences and advertisers alike. The World Media Awards is a great example of this and provides an opportunity to recognise and celebrate industry best practice. We are delighted to support the programme and wish the best of luck to all the finalists.”
Jamie Credland added “We’re also glad to extend the entry deadline by two weeks to allow more people to enter. Our jury is looking forward to reviewing your entries so we can celebrate the very best work across the industry.”
