The 2016 Global Award winners will be announced on November 17, 2016 and will be showcased at awards ceremonies in New York City and Sydney, Australia.

The Global Awards’ executive jury and grand jury of industry experts represents the top creative minds in the field of healthcare and wellness advertising. Jury members are recruited from more than 20 countries on six continents. The Global Awards jury selection process ensures that renowned international talent with global knowledge and perspective from the industry judges each entry.

Annually, in addition to the grand jury’s online judging sessions, the Global Awards organises live judging sessions around the globe to review digital based works and collateral materials that support a campaign and which cannot be judged online. These global live sessions are hosted at prominent international healthcare communication agencies and allow jurors to examine in detail multi-paged works including: sales kits, direct mail, brochures, point of purchase displays, and annual reports.

Young Global Awards

Michael Demetriades, executive director of the Global Awards, says, “The goal of the Young Global Awards is to drive awareness of the great work happening in healthcare and wellness advertising, ultimately driving more talented young people into the industry.”

The Young Globals, the only college/portfolio school competition for healthcare advertising that offers students the opportunity to submit creative work and be recognised with a Global Award and introduces students to the rewards of working in the healthcare and wellness advertising industry, announced three winning teams in 2015. The 2015 Young Globals award-winning teams will be honoured at this year’s Global Awards ceremony
