Launched in 2010, the WFA President’s Awards look to recognise national advertiser association-led industry initiatives which are helping advance the marketer’s agenda and are contributing to positive change in the industry and society.
Call for submissions for the 2026 edition is open!
National industry associations in WFA membership are invited to nominate programmes and activities they have led/are leading that have made a real difference. Submissions must meet the following criteria:
- Must be ‘industry’, rather than company-specific;
- Needs to have made a real impact on brand owners and marketers, the industry and/or society in 2025;
- Needs to have shown a degree of innovation;
- Has proven measurable impact;
- Can be replicated in other countries/markets.
Submissions will be evaluated by members of the WFA Executive Committee who will vote to determine a shortlist of initiatives. The winning initiatives will be selected by WFA President David Wheldon OBE and honoured during Global Marketer Week 2026 in Stockholm on April 23, 2026.
There are no entry fees.
