The Gerety Awards Judging is About to Begin and the Shortlist Will be Announced September 21
Jul. 27, 2020
The Gerety Awards judging is about to begin and the shortlist will be announced September 21 followed by live streaming of jury debates from around the world.
The Gerety Awards marks the first time that a jury has been brought together to select the best in advertising — all advertising, not just advertising made for women — through the female lens. Studies show that women make up to 80% of all purchasing decisions globally, so it creates a benchmark that is relevant to the market reality, all while redefining the standard to which advertising has traditionally been held.
