Industry association EVCOM has announced the shortlist of nominees for the EVCOM Clarion Awards 2017 in association with drp. The leading event and film communication awards recognise the greatest projects in the field of CSR and sustainability, including environment, diversity, equality, community, charity initiatives, education, ethical, health and welfare.
Following in-depth deliberation by a panel of industry experts, the truly outstanding winners are set to be recognised in an afternoon of celebration at Seven Dials in Covent Garden on 14 July. Projects that win gold will also automatically be entered free of charge into the inaugural EVCOM Industry Awards, which will identify the best of the best across all sectors of our industry.
“We’re once again astounded by the calibre of entries,” said Jennifer Jenkins, EVCOM’s new CEO. “CSR and sustainability are increasingly identified as a core consideration for corporates and we’re extremely proud to be able to highlight the great work that is being done in the sector.”
