PRWeek

Crossing borders...building bridges...benchmarking success

The power of the PR industry is a key factor in the growth of global business.  Communications is the one discipline that operates across stakeholder groups and communities, and helps companies tell their stories to new markets and audiences using every available channel.

The PRWeek Global Awards honors the transformative work that crosses borders, building brands and trust, enabling the growth of international enterprise. It is the only awards program that benchmarks the most important work going across markets around the world. Winners will be those producing transformational work and running first-rate organizations of all kinds.

We will honor our winners at a two-day event in Barcelona May 15-16 2014, which will include a conference featuring case studies from our shortlisted entries, as well as the launch of PRWeek’s global Hall of Fame. Much more than an Awards, our global conference will be the convening ground on best global practices and truly groundbreaking work in international public relations. 

Congratulations to all of our 2014 shortlisted companies! You can view the shortlist in full here. 

Winners will be announced at the first PRWeek Global Awards, taking place on 15 May in Barcelona, early bird tickets available until Friday, 18 April!
