The Buzzies are peer recognition awards by GOVIS members to their colleagues. It's never been easy to get members to nominate their projects for consideration, but this year we received a record number of nominations, a sign, we believe, that indicates the increasing maturity of the awards.

 

Once again, we thank our interviewer and copy-writer, Jillian Armstrong, for her professionalism in capturing and documenting your stories. Jillian and the judges of this year's awards have repeatedly described themselves as "blown away" by the innovation, quality, and competence of the projects they've been privileged to review.

 

GOVIS congratulates all the nominees. It takes considerable courage for agencies to share these stories, especially, as some have noted, in front of their peers who must surely be one of the most critical audiences any of us can face. We commend these stories to our members.

Acknowledgements

 

GOVIS expresses it's thanks and appreciation to all nominees, judges, organisers, and their agency employers. Without the willing contribution of your time and energy, the Buzzies could not happen. Thanks to your efforts we have achieved an event to be proud of and an award that is increasingly sought after.

 

Note: It's not always easy to get nominations in all four categories. At their discretion, the judges may consider a story under one or more categories, or even under a category the nominee did not originally consider.
