The Future 100 class of 2025 can now be revealed as The Media Leader spotlights a new wave of trailblazers for the fourth year.
Whittling down so many entries to the final 100 was not an easy task for the panel of judges. The chosen 100 represent the entire media ecosystem, including media agencies, media owners, advertisers and tech businesses.
They include Adform, Bauer Media Outdoor, BBC, Buttermilk, Comcast Advertising, Equativ, EssenceMediacom, Experian, Giffgaff, Google, Ipsos, JCDecaux, Koffeecup, Mediahub, MG OMD, Open Media, PHD, PMG, Spin, Talon, the7stars, The Trade Desk, Tripadvisor, UM, Wavemaker, Whalar UK and Zenith.
Unlike other groups of rising stars or future leaders lists, The Future 100 Club does not discriminate on age, time spent in the industry or current job title.
Judges were asked to assess the entrants on their evidence of displaying The Media Leader‘s core values of disruption, innovation, courage and excellence.
Sam Tidmarsh, content lead at Adwanted Events and one of this year’s judges, said: “Reading through the entries, what was clear is that, regardless of seniority, people in our industry can drive change and challenge the status quo if they want to.”
A huge thank you to the judges, everyone who nominated or entered, and a massive congratulations to the class of 2025.
