APEX entries are judged in one of the following three categories:
“The objectives of the APEX Awards are, very simply, to bring us back to basics – to demonstrate that the purpose of advertising is to contribute to business success, to encourage best practice in creating and placing effective advertising and, most importantly, to ensure the future of the industry by becoming accountable. APEX award winners are no doubt leaders in their fields and, as a result, the awards are highly sought after in the advertising and communications industry,” Concludes Odette Roper, CEO of the Association for Communication and Advertising.
Since its inception in 1995, the APEX awards has recognised advertising performance excellence in an industry that is constantly redefining creativity. The stringent adjudication process requires the entrants to prove that their submissions have contributed a measurable return to their client's bottom line. They have to be able to demonstrate both strategic and creative effectiveness.
This year's APEX Awards is sponsored by SABC, SAB, IDC, Emperor's Palace, Sappi, Clover, Alight Productions and Mushroom Productions.
