African Digital Media Awards 2018 – Call
for entries
Registration for the prestigious 2018
African Digital Media Awards has opened and WAN-IFRA is calling for entries
from Africa media ahead of the award ceremony in Johannesburg, South Africa,
later this year.
Winners of the African Digital Media Awards
are automatically entered into the World Digital Media Awards competition.
The entry deadline is October 26, 2018. The
media awards will be held in Johannesburg, South Africa, on 23 November 2018,
at a glittering event.
The annual awards hosted by WAN-IFRA recognises
publishers who have adopted digital media and mobile strategies as part of
their total product offering to meet the major changes in how people consume
news and information today.
The competition is open to all publishers
in Africa operational between 25 August 2017 to 15 September 2018. All entries
must be published by 15 September 2018.
“This is our third digital awards in Africa
and the winning projects have already proved themselves against international
competition. For example, Media 24 went on to win a World Digital Media Award
in 2017 for News24 Edge - beating competition from the U.S., Asia and Europe,”
said WAN-IFRA, Chief Executive Officer, Vincent Peyrègne. “We’re really looking
forward to seeing the submissions from 2018 - especially in our new categories
such as Digital Revenue.”
Entries for the awards will be considered
in the following categories:
Best News Website or Mobile Service
Best in Lifestyle, Sports, Entertainment
Website or Mobile Services
Best Use of Online Video (including VR)
Best Data Visualisation
Best Reader Revenue Initiative
