This competition, presented for the past seven years, offers editors and designers a chance to benchmark their publications against the best in the industry and to obtain valuable feedback from a panel of top judges who have a thorough understanding of the corporate publication world.
Last year saw 150 publications entered, from the humble staff newsletter to glossy once-off publications of major South African companies. Contact, staff newspaper of the City of Cape Town, received top honours in 2007, while Shireen Sedres and Beatrice Moore-Nöthnagel, both from Santam, shared the top spot as Editor-of-the-Year. Santam also won the award for the best internal magazine for essence and best external magazine on a smaller budget for Santam Focus.
