Hosted by comedian Suzi Ruffell, the evening recognised the efforts of direct and digital marketing professionals across 13 categories.
“These particular Awards celebrate the very best direct and digital marketing professionals in magazine media and it is genuinely exciting to see such truly innovative work right across the entire spectrum," said PPA CEO Barry McIlheney on the night. “Our judges – as always – had a very difficult time in choosing the winners for these hotly contested awards.”
