So, we're especially excited to launch this year's program as a way to help reward and showcase the ways marketers have risen to the challenge."
The Awards Program, now in its twenty-fourth year, recognizes programs that demonstrate deep market insight, innovative marketing approaches, and substantial business impact across the most important aspects of strategic B2B marketing.
