Mediatel Media Research Awards are back for 2022

The Mediatel team is excited to announce the return of the Media Research Awards.

After a hiatus last year, the coveted awards will return for 2022 with renewed energy and fresh initiatives including:

• a new line up of judges drawing expertise from across the industry
• brand new categories including ‘Pulse of the nation’
• an extension of the eligible period to cover the last two years

With events like the pandemic and Brexit impacting all industries in the UK, research and insight is more critical for success than ever. Additionally, the innovation demonstrated by the research community in the face of huge challenges during the pandemic deserve recognition.
