The PPA awards recognise the outstanding and diverse work of businesses and individuals across every corner of the dynamic and vibrant specialist media sector.

Over 55 publishing professionals, from a variety of consumer and B2B businesses, and including members of the PPA’s Next Gen Board, reviewed and judged hundreds of entries from more than 70 companies.

The 27 categories span the industry’s talent – from highly skilled editors, world-class writers, marketing experts, and commercial leaders, to product excellence – design, subscriptions, podcasts, data, newsletters, and events; to the businesses and industry initiatives that are charting progress in important areas like sustainability and ED&I.

PPA CEO Sajeeda Merali comments: “The quality of the winning consumer and business entries is testament to the fantastic talent and work that our members’ create and the value that trusted media brings to the communities it engages.”
