Deadline: January 25, 2008
For more than a decade, The Webby has been the most coveted and important award in the online world. With over 100 business, consumer and culture categories—including new categories in Interactive Advertising, Online Film & Video and Mobile Web—it’s your opportunity to be recognized as the best of the Web.
Just by entering the Webby Awards, you salute the work of your team. And the benefits of winning are priceless.
As a Webby honoree, your work is recognized as best in its class by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences—a 550-member body made up of a “who’s who” of industry experts, creative celebrities, and luminaries.
The 11th Annual Webby Awards generated over 750 million media impressions in outlets from the BBC, CNN and ABC News to the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Variety and Wired magazine. The publicity and buzz the Webby generates for its winners and honorees is immeasurable.
Entries come from over 60 countries around the world, and all 50 US states. And big budgets don’t automatically translate into Web excellence. In fact, small companies, organizations, and agencies are as likely to win as Fortune 500 companies and international powerhouses.
With categories covering every aspect of the online world, the Webby is your chance to outshine your peers.
Accept your award and give a Webby hallmark 5-word acceptance speech in front of other winners, industry luminaries, creative celebrities, business leaders, press and surprise guests at the invitation-only Webby Awards gala event in New York City in June 2008.
Last year’s events at sold-out Cipriani Wall Street and New World Stages in New York featured Special Achievement winners David Bowie, Beastie Boys, eBay CEO Meg Whitman, Jessica Rose (lonelygirl15), Ask a Ninja and YouTube founders Steve Chen and Chad Hurley. Past attending winners have included acclaimed musician Prince, Internet co-Inventor Dr. Robert Kahn, and former Vice President Al Gore.
