Chair of Judges Award

"Guarded Bus Stop"

Eletromidia

 

Chair of judges Matthew Dearden of Alight Media says: "This year we had more entries than ever for our awards and, crucially, of a high standard.

"The awards exist to celebrate the great work and people in our global industry, those who have already achieved a great deal and those who are embarking on that particular path, plus highlighting vital global issues including sustainability. Through this celebration they inspire, challenge and energise us all to stretch ourselves and grow in the right way.

“I created the Chair’s award to recognise an outstanding entry that the judges loved and that deserves its own category.

"It was tough choosing between so many outstanding entries and I'd like to thank my fellow judges for their hard work, wisdom and commitment to the cause of an even more effective Out of Home medium."
