Ahead of the 2017 ESA Excellence Awards ceremony, taking place on Wednesday 7th February 2018 at the Science Museum, London, we’ve been speaking to a few of the judges about the process and campaign entries. Here’s what our ESA Chairman, Andy Westlake has to say:

The ESA Awards is our first big event of the year and we’re excited to bring the industry together again.
The winners are coming from some strong and often heated debates!
We’ve received another record number of entries for the 2017 ESA Excellence Awards, and the winners will come from some strong and often heated debate! I was also thrilled this year with the quality of the judges – we have representatives from across the industry, and I’d like to thank them for committing their time and expertise to ensuring we recognise those entries that represent the very best of our industry.
We are seeing work from more brands, agencies and rights-holders than ever before
As for the entries, there was a real cross section of work with some really standout submissions. We are seeing work from more brands, agencies and rights-holders than ever before and, as it always is, the judges are ensuring that the very best work will be recognised.
That, coupled with our new partnership with The Science Museum, our 7th February 2018 awards ceremony host, and we have an event that truly represents the best of our industry across Europe.
We’re continually striving to make this the Gold Standard celebration of the very best work in sponsorship and partnership marketing.
