LONDON - The closing date of Friday, 20 June is looming for entries to the Media Week Awards 2008.

Categories reflect the size of budgets: Niche (less than £250k); Medium (£250k-£1m); and Large (more than £1m). They include sales pitch, media brand, sales team, media idea, international campaign and media agency, as well as media innovation, collaboration and best research initiative.

Judges are looking for a big media idea, no matter what the budget or category, and the insights and evidence of effectiveness that follow from that.

There are also two judges' categories: the Grand Prix and rising star of the year, the shortlist for which is being generated from Media Week's 30 under 30 initiative.

The entry fee is £155+VAT and forms can be found at www.mediaweekawards.co.uk.

For further details about entering or booking tables, email liz.lockard@haymarket.com, or call 020 8267 4145. Winners will be announced at an awards ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel, London, on Thursday, 30 October.
