e4m Maverick Awards 2023: Inaugural edition to be held on July 21
The awards will honour exemplary works executed by regional, national, small-medium and independent agencies
The exchange4media Group is thrilled to announce the inaugural edition of the e4m Maverick Awards on July 21 in Mumbai. The one-of-its-kind awards aim to recognise and acknowledge the outstanding work done by regional, national, small-medium, and independent agencies - the marketing marvels who improve the marketing communication industry. These awards are open to media, digital and creative agencies who have shown exemplary performance, made a significant contribution to the industry, and their organisations, and can prove their campaigns have had a measurable effect.
The e4m Maverick Awards celebrate the independent agencies of India for their remarkable work and out-of-the-box marketing strategies and impressive innovations. An independent advertising agency refers to a company that operates independently and is not (or fully) owned/controlled by a larger holding company. It is responsible for creating and implementing marketing plans for its clients to promote their products or services to a specific target audience.
The final jury meet is scheduled to take place on July 11. The entries for the e4m Maverick Awards will be judged by eminent experts and business leaders across seven different categories including Digital Marketing, MarTech, Social Media Marketing, Influencer Marketing, Traditional Marketing, Sectoral Marketing and Special Awards, which are further divided into sub categories. The jury will assess the nominations on several criteria, including vision & innovation, impact & influence and creativity.
