The PPA Next Gen Awards exist to champion the most exciting rising stars in the UK

These awards celebrate the individuals with diverse talents and backgrounds, who work for trusted editorial brands, across business and consumer media.

From dynamic data analysts, events experts, and driven sales executives; to marketing and insight stars, engaging writers, boundary-pushing people professionals, editorial masterminds, and finance wizards - we look to celebrate the individuals in our industry whose achievements and skills are shaping the future.

Winners will be celebrated at an invite-only event on Thursday 8 October at the Virgin-Hotel Shoreditch.

Entry deadline: Wednesday 8 July
