The CN Agency Awards returns in June for its 3^rd annual edition, and submissions have been extended to 31^st March.

In spite of the success that the CN Agency Awards 2020 and 2019 turned out to be, the Conference News team felt it was important to make a few changes to this year’s proceedings, in their efforts to show a true reflection of all the hard work the agency sector has done over the past 12 months.

So, here’s everything you need to know about the CN Agency Awards 2021…

Extra Prize for all award winners

Considering the state that the events industry found itself in over the last 12 months, it’s no surprise that marketing budgets have taken a real hit. In an effort to try and get agencies and corporates connecting again, the CN team is offering a whopping £5,000s worth of free advertising to each and every winning agency at the 2021 ceremony, to be used across whichever CN channel takes their fancy.

 Submissions for the CN Agency Awards are totally free, and any agency is welcome to enter as many as they’d like to.
