Comms Business Awards Finalists Announced!

Comms Business is delighted to announce the finalists for the Comms Business Awards 2014. Judging took place last week when our judges (listed below) came together to discuss who they thought deserved to win. The Comms Business Awards are dedicated to recognising talent in the Channel and are widely considered the most prestigious awards in the sector.

The Awards will take place on the 19th June at the Lancaster Hotel in London and will be a glitzy evening of entertainment providing the perfect opportunity to get your glad rags on and shine those shoes! This year the host for the evening will be none other than Jimmy Carr, comedian and star of popular TV show ‘8 out of 10 Cats’. It’s sure to be a great night!

To attend the evening please contact our sales team on 01892 538348 or at sales@commsbusiness.co.uk
