About us
Launched in May 2003 by the Internet Advertising Bureau, the Creative Showcase celebrates cutting edge creativity and innovation within the online advertising sector.
In early 2003, a group of creative agencies (led by glue London, Profero and Wheel) expressed a desire to see a new award to celebrate the UK's best digital creative work. They approached the IAB with the idea of creating a monthly award which showcases cutting-edge creativity and innovation within the online advertising sector and soon afterwards Creative Showcase was born.
The UK produces world-class online creative that doesn't always get the recognition and acclaim it deserves - The Showcase redresses that and shares the best work with a wide audience. Let us help you shout about your great work!
Each month agencies and in house teams submit their top creative campaigns to be judged by our team of senior creative judges. Once judged the winners and 2 runners up take over the creative showcase homepage, feature on the IAB site, newsletters and in Pitch Digital in association with New Media Age. And most importantly the winners will be invited to present at one of our 3 lunch time award seminars held throughout the year. All winners and runners up will also be automatically entered into the annual Creative Showcase Grand Prix Awards.
The Creative Showcase’s main focus is digital creativity, so really anything goes! We’re looking to represent the broad range of digital creativity from microsites to widgets, mobile apps to fancy banners. It's also worth noting that results are not taken into consideration – all we ask is that entries contain a digital element and are creative.
Take a look through our showcase, I think you'll agree each year the industry just gets better and better...... Then sign up and show us what you've got!
Full details on entry criteria can be found here.
